MysticNacho Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 (edited) It got stuck on the final rap to the couloir, and we had to leave it. Will reward if returned! I'll also drive out to wherever to pick it up. Dan 206-696-0537 Edited June 12, 2004 by MysticNacho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbb Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 I almost lost a rope on that rapp once. Skinny line wrapped around one of those little tree trunks. I'll never do that rapp with doubles again. Sorry to hear about the ankle, way to self rescue! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catbirdseat Posted June 21, 2004 Share Posted June 21, 2004 That rap route is famous for stuck ropes. On arriving there, early one morning, we found a rope hanging. It had gotten stuck and someone had cut it! What good is half a rope? By and by, some guys coming off Liberty Crack came down and freed it. We took it home and I use it occasionally to set up top rope anchors from trees that happen to be distant from the edge of the cliff. I have to wonder, what is the logic in cutting the stuck rope? I'm sure it was very late in the day, perhaps getting dark, and they didn't want to lead back up to free it, but why cut it? I would have left it intact. If I could, I would have left a note attached to it, or if else taped to the privy at Blue Lake parking lot. If the finder didn't see fit to return it to me, at least someone would benefit from a 50 m rope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYC007 Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 I had to cut my 8.5, now its 85 ft long, caught in a crack when a storm was about to hit.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
