So maybe anyone could soil their underwear on the big ledge atop P2 of Solid Gold.
But seriously, why would you just marginally cover it with a rock, right near the belay stance?
How about going back and retrieving it yourself the next day, if you didn't feel capable at the time?

What is wrong with people?

Anyway, I cleaned up your s**t, literally, and will be glad to return it to you anytime.

Good man you are, Mark. But seriously, it'll take at least 6 months for cotton clothes to decompose. Less if the conditions are right. That's half a year of an accident ridden piece of underwear just hanging out where people frequently visit. *shivers*

I think they owe you a lot more than a beer... Thanks for your service, Mark.

You seem to run into poop covered underwear a lot. Thanks for cleaning it up!

Maybe the universe is trying to tell me something.
A second career in waste management?
My sense of smell is pretty poor, I'd be a natural.

I'm certain that there is a perfectly good explanation for this. Someone got those underwear from his wife, she passed away recently and they have tremendous sentimental value to him. While he was climbing, he was thinking of her, got sidetracked and pooped his pants.

Rather than throw them away. He stored them beneath that rock in order to retrieve them at a later date.

I think you have done this man a grave disservice and have insulted the memory of his dearly departed. You should be ashamed of yourself and return the underwear immediately.

Fortunately this thread was pretty underwhelming. When I saw accident and cleanup I immediately thought somebody went splat. On the bright side, you didn't have to clean up after somebody's brains or other innards.

Wash your hands before you drink that beer

The universe is saying you're a badass. This guy was in waste management too

This guy would make you keep the crags clean

Does seem like a weirdly CCC thing.
Have to get the FHRC on the case :-)

Thanks for the clean-up.
Happy to drop off a beer for you at the BRC, Earth Treks or somewhere else, if you like.

You came up with that way too fast!

Wall of Justice, Creek Side, and now Wall of the 90s. Do we have a serial pooper on the loose? Maybe someone is trying to be the first person to brownpoint all the 5.12s in CCC?

It's everywhere! Top of the whale's tail, rewritten, a ledge near Over the Hill come to mind for past Eldo tighty-whitey mid-climb cleanup missions. It seems like the number of ledge-bound fecal underoos sightings has dropped considerably since the wag bag dispensers were installed.

Mark: You have been awarded the 2016 Carl Spackler prize for bravery in crag cleaning. Your Baby Ruth will be available for pickup at your convenience.

There absolutely should be a Carl Spackler award.
