Ditto on the congrats, heal up. Not a rookie move, I see old trad guys who've been climbing for years do this more than the kids. I'm as guilty as the next person too.

Good on you Dean for being proactive. I was at our local crag Saturday, and noted that the litter was gone. Anyone know where I can get a replacement or where one can be had for a reasonable price?

Thanks

Best wishes on healing up fast.....

I once saw someone fall with his rope behind the leg and crack his head open. Ever since that day I always wear a helmet....shit happens

There is a litter in The Needles. It's in the Col which abuts.., "Witches Hat" or whatever it's called.
