Climbed unimpeachable yesterday and got two ropes tied together stuck while trying to pull down from the first rap. Don’t rap off of this!! 

If you could unstick the knot and pull the rope, my number is 202-997-9240. 

Apologies for any inconvenience and thank you!!

How did you end up getting down? Was there another party nearby?

Hey. My buddies and I got your ropes! We actually were able to pull the knot out pretty easily from above and brought the ropes down. We will be in red rock until the morning of 3/18 then heading out of town. 

Sent a text to the number above.

We were climbing with another party of friends and shared their ropes for the rest of the way... Thankfully!! Could have been a much worse situation otherwise.

if you were with another party with a rope(s)...how come you didn't retrieve it yourself?

So that we could have the pleasure of rapping down their lines and leaving them if they got stuck again.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
