Accident on Martin's Route

Accident on Martin's Route

I know this photo is piece of shit but I made it after 7 meters long unprotected fall about 350 meters above base of the rock face. Jck (Jacek), we are the lucky beggars once again. "Pain shoots through me. My legs are numb, my hand cut is deep and irregular. I’m sucking my blood as I can’t figure out any other rational way to stoop bleeding. First aid kit is in my back pack but I’m not in the mood to balance on this snowy ledge to reach it. I try not to be chaotic as I know I’m in shock."

No, it's not a piece of shit!

In fact, I think it's a great one. No one would even dream of taking a photo after what you just went through.
Looking forward to the trip report,
Happy climbing,
Marc

Thanks Marc but I made it with my mobile and everything here is little blurred...even gesticulating Jck looks fuzzy... or maby this is really how we looked after my fall :)
TR is pretty much ready.
cheers, Radek
