Dude.  We did fill out the log book...  Fuckers.  Not that I'd really have wanted a rescue. We deserved to shiver biver for that...



So yeah.. No helicopters or news articles.  On the plus side, I didnt get a fine leaving in the morning, either.  :twisted:



I'm kinda curious what route it was, too..

I think it was Machete Direct, though I could be wrong. That route couldn't be that hard to rap? I can't say since I haven't been high enough.



Maybe they were on Drop-zone?



Chris, that is nice they didn't hassle you. I'd be tip-toeing to my car and getting out quick before they woke up.





I bet you the'll be hassling folks later in the day from now on. Jake got hassled years ago as they were stumbling back to the car.



I'm sorry, but the taste of cold beer will keep me from an overnight bivy. The trick is not to rap 1st. :lol:



The worst was on the Black Ice gulley in the Tetons. That was a semi hanging bivy. Ironically, I found one of the few fixed pins on the route right next to where I shivvered.

I have no idea why he would want to walk to Crowly Towers all the way from the East Side.  



That's Crazy.
