Nope...

Sorry but that is Dennis Poulin on the left and then Tom (Cornvallis). Dennis got hit on the ankle by a sizeable rock coming down from the summit so we had him go first thinking that if he slipped, we'd have 3 guys behind him on the rope to watch and arrest a fall. Of course, he had no problem on the traverse back but had a nice bloody scrape to show when we got back to camp.

Re: Nope...

I hope we didn't knock that rock loose from above you. I couldn't remember who was wearing what shirt/jacket.

Re: Nope...

Nope, no rocks from you guys. It was Tom that did it accidentally. He felt really bad about it. I had to grab a rock and swing around it to avoid getting clobbered by it too. Of course we gave Tom grief all the way down the mountain about it too. Dennis thinks he'll be 100% by this weekend though so he's good.

Re: Nope...

Ha ha! I am sure Dennis is fine. At least he said so when he called me from his attorney's office. ;- )

Re: Nope...

You guys are off the hook, I got an email from Dennis and he's ready to hit the mtns again this weekend so the attorney has been cancelled.

Different perspective

I may be a bit biased since I'm in this one, but nice shot. It gives a completely different perspective of the traverse. I kept looking up on the traverse to see if I could see you guys, but I couldn't.
