Thanks for chiming in, I was going to stay out of this unless your party was going to respond. Since you have, I must say thank you for sharing your story. I am grateful to learn from every experience worth learning from . This is something that could happen to anyone on this medium and it is nice to know something like it is survivable. I am a veteran of huge falls too they are not easy to go through or talk about. Glad to hear that your party is fairly sound, and heal fast, Wayne
