Static or Dynamic - erden?

This is certainly a sensitive subject. I apologize in advance if I am pushing a point on a subject that carries to much pain and emotion.

 

What was the rope??? IMO, this is the single most critical question that needs to be answered to help explain the accident. I have to say that it should have been answered by now. It can't be as difficult of a question as any of the others.

 

If anyone can lay this question to rest, please do so. Thanks - TG

Thank you for the follow up question.

 

Mike Gauthier has taken on the lead role in the investigation into Göran's accident. Mike will consolidate all available information into a one definitive independent report. This is at the request of the American Alpine Club and the Swedish Climbing Association, and Mike is collaborating with the UIAA safety commission in this effort.

 

It is my hope that all such questions will be clarified and answered in due time. The rope is still with the Grant County Sheriff.

 

Please have patience.

 

Erden.

I wish you and Göran's loved one's heartfelt condolences.
