Surgery to reduce swelling of the brain.

The latest update is that Kurt is still not concious, but this is probably because of the meds he is under recovering from the surgeries. He did squeeze a visitors hand though. He took quite a fall onto some rockery, and apparently has a sizeable dent. He may not be up for hanging out with visitors for a while. He also punctured a lung in the fall, but obviously most concerning is the head injury. I'm going to go visit him with Hansel and Mark tomorrow afternoon, and I'll pass along everyone's best wishes.

Cool trip report, just read it again. I'm glad you got hired by the ranger to climb the route!

Thanks corvallis...damn..how much did they cost before they became collectors items?

well, that is a much better location than the icicle.

there has to be a liberal excuse for these people, but i can't think of it right now.

is there something in the water over there in Spokane or what?

I just talked to Mark McKillop and I can share this much at this point: Yesterday Kurt had an accident at work where he fell off a ladder and landed on his head. The injuries are serious. He had a few operations last night, and the current doctor's prognosis is upbeat. Kurt's parents are there, as Mark and some friends are going to try to visit Kurt this afternoon. As a board administrator, I'm not going to tolerate people posting crap about Kurt through this time. I know Kurt is a light hearted individual, but this is not a light hearted matter. You can have fun with Kurt when he posts again here, but until then keep the B.S. spray out of this thread and any thread about Kurt. I am very serious about this. As for anyone wishing to visit Kurt, we will announce how that will be possible later. For now, just try to send your best thoughts his way or whatever way you cope with these types of situations.

Damn! What do they have planned for a honeymoon? K2? Cool story, sounds like a great climb all around.

intense.

I can't see them unless I look directly on kodaks website. Others have the same experience?

Get out of your car and walk away. Go to the Seattle Center, find the man wearing the dress and twirling scarves. ask him for the passcode.

an evening alone in bed with a bottle of wine vs. jaeger shots at a crowed bar with a drunken hookup at the end.

happy birthday Chad.

IS THAT YOU GREEN DRAG-ON?

Very cool. Love the old pics of Index Mayor.

I think his name is Stefan, but maybe he is a chick.
