Hey all, I have four draws on mega, the 5.9 rope stretcher, left from may 4. If anyone has them I'd appreciate a call at 330-760-6226 to get them back for some beer. My buddy broke his ankle on the climb last night and we had to bail.

Yes, I was belaying the second case. The wasn't much i could do beyond spray beta, the guy has the situation spot on. Climber went way left and i was telling him to get right under the roof. he kept going for a weird high clip and fell with a gnarly swing moving right, hence the broken right ankle. :/ I've led that multiple times as warmup and i know theres a stance in there he just couldn't find or commit to it. And the catch is usually soft by default, he's 230lbs and 6.3. i'm 6.1 and 190.

I pulled those draws yesterday. Sorry to hear about the ankle. Accidents happen.

were you with a girl? someone gave me back four of them. I think there was a fifth camp draw with yellow tape.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
