Hey Team,
I just wanted to address the rumors about what happened today and give ya'll a brief update.
Quinn and Josie were climbing the Nose when Quinn took an approximately 100 foot fall mid lead up the boot flake and unfortunately struck Texas flake. She is alive, alert/oriented, and stable but dealing with severe and likely life long injuries.
I am with her, Josie is on her way and her family will arrive tomorrow.
We will update here as Quinn and her family deem appropriate.
Thanks,
Libby

Looking forward to a fast recovery and an exciting first hand account of this wild adventure. 100 ft fall will be a great tale to tell the grandkids someday.
