Cams and Injury on Iron Messiah

Hello,

My partner took an approximate 30 ft. fall on the "Black Corner" pitch of Iron Messiah yesterday. In this fall, he broke his ankle in 3 places.

Shane's Ankles.

He left a significant amount of gear on that pitch, and if anyone feels so inclined to return the gear to us, a $100 reward is in short order.

Please feel free to post here or send me an e-mail at WLIPPIA at Gmail dot com.

Thank you,

Weston

There's a black corner of monkey finger... what exactly are you talking about on iron Messiah?

And of course fast recovery and I hope you get reunited with the gear

A fellow MP user has the gear now, and will be returning it to me next weekend, thank you so much!

Faith in humanity: restored.
