MrGecko Posted December 3, 2013 Posted December 3, 2013 I don't know who the climber is but we were in Black Velvet Canyon on Sat running up some routes on Whiskey Peak when a climber took a fall on the 3rd pitch? of Frogland. The information shared was a compound fracture of his right arm and I'm sure some other injuries. He was lowered in a litter from the upper pitches and then heli slung out on a short haul. Kudos to the S&R team and some amazing flying skills to get the chopper so tight near the wall for the haul. [video:youtube] Quote
