Lost Crampon on Orizaba

by eggheadsherpa » Fri Nov 30, 2007 5:44 am

Hi,

Some friends and I attempted Orizaba 11/19, and my friend lost a crampon near the crater rim and wasn't able to retrieve it since it slid pretty far down the slope and he wasn't very experienced climbing w/ one crampon. It's a long shot, but if anyone finds a Grivel crampon up there let me know, thanks!

Could you be a little more specific about the crampon in question, just in case more than one Grivel turns up...

I guess I could be more specific...it was a Grivel G-12 crampon with anti-bott...left foot. ;)

Yeah Tina, sorry, we had to leave right after getting back to camp. Sorry I missed you guys. Did you summit?
