Hi, I was climbing at the egg this past Sunday and climbed "leggo my eggo." My partner lowered me off the end of the rope and I had to leave the draws. If anyone has been up there and grabbed them, I would greatly appreciate it if I could get them back. Thanks in advance.

Hope you're okay Chase. I saw all the emergency vehicles down below crescent crack and had a bad feeling in my stomach. Hope you're back on the rock soon!

Yeah, I fell approximately 40 feet or so and stopped on a ledge below and somehow only have some scrapes and a sprained ankle. I'm super lucky, for such a stupid mistake.

Old school bolting on that thing, one of the more scarier climbs I've ever done. Don't quote me on this but I think the FA did the bolting while on lead.

Had a 70m rope and my partner and I didn't knot the end of it. As I was being lowered the rope went through my partners device and I fell to the ledge out right of the start.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
