I think you got me beat by a few feet there Bob! How far do you think it was? Looks like 40 to me.

Best I could do was a 25'er on Balch camp flake. I'll try harder next year.

Not this year, but in 2011 my partner took a 40+ foot ground fall over by the Chockstone Chimney.
Never want to see something like that again.
He landed out of my field of view, couldn't see him but heard his impact and then silence. I screamed his name three times, dead silence. Bizarre the thoughts that well up in your mind in moments like that. Then I heard a groan. Still the most kickass groan I've ever heard. (Groans not to be confused with moans, def heard better moans).
Mega bonus is that he walked/limped away from it, somehow, down that Ribbon approach.

Knowing that people die and get paralyzed in the game, now we have an awards show for the winners?
