Stuck rope coming down from East Buttress of Middle Cathedral

Climbed this route last Sat (April 30) with my girlfriend and really enjoyed the climbing. On descent we decided to try and avoid the snowy gully with lots of people and instead took the alternative rap route via Penny Pinnacle and further rappelled through the north gully. Rappel through the northern gully avoided the snow but was considerably longer, and had one dead tree anchor and two rather suspect bolted anchors with very rusty bolts. We got our rope stuck upon reaching the ground. I can't recommend this route for anyone, but just in case anyone happens to end up there and retrieves our rope, I'd really appreciate getting it back (or at least remove it).
