stewart.sss Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 My climbing partner mistakenly left my green alien on the 5.9 (3rd) pitch of the lower North Ridge of Mt. Stuart on July 15. I guess he thought that since there was a stuck green alien on the 2nd pitch, all green aliens were stuck (although I'm not sure what he thought about the carabiner on it). By the time I realized it was missing, we were past the notch. It should not have been stuck and should have come right out. It has pink tape on it.

NoahT Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Nice job throwing your partner under the bus. You could accomplish your goal by just saying, "we lost a green alien blah blah blah." Drop the blame game... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewart.sss Posted July 21, 2014 Author Share Posted July 21, 2014 Relax NoahT. It was a tongue and cheek ribbing of a very good friend. There is no bus or blame, just a sense of humor amongst pals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
