That latest Dreamer thread and all the talk about stuck ropes got me to thinking about the nightmare that is truly stuck ropes.

One left a friend and I to spend the frigid night after winter solstice in Solar Slab Gully, Red Rocks, NV (after a bad decision about the proper descent from Black Orpheus.)

Nothing I hate worse.

Scott,

 

I got my ropes stuck on that same damn decent. I think it was even close to the shortest day of the year. My climbing partner and I huddled in a cave on a small ledge, freezing, finally one of us ended up soloing back up to free the ropes. Sucked, but survived.
