Started driving back around the loop and dispatch calls climber fall on Mescalito.
We run code back to El Cap, run to the base of Mescalito and it's skully sitting there seeing stars with a huge laceration on the top of his head with blood down his face.
He looked like some dude from wwf wrestlemania who got pounded by a metal chair .... LOL.
130 footer ripper!!!
LOL .... he was even smiling at one point .....
If it's only the second of Skully's nine lives, it's nothing to worry about. My best wishes for a speedy recovery...
