Took a zinger off this dryfall
I was climbing this dryfall in upper Cascade Canyon
6/3/2007 and fell 25~30 feet when a handhold pulled loose. Very
Luckliy the fall was perfect.
The rock pulled out, and I smeared most of the way down the
dryfall, which is smooth rock and just burned my hand,arm,knee and
brusied body parts that touched on the way down. Anyway I landed
at the bottom, in a small pile of leaves facing the dryfall, still
standing, with the rock still clutched in my hand (it was about a 15
pound rock), thanking the powers that be, that I was not broken during
this fall.
These pictures were taken on a previous climb.
This dryfall is in Upper Cascade Canyon, and is approximately 45' to where I am standing.
I was at this location on the dryfall, the hand hold that pulled out is just behind my right shoulder.
