Summary
[edit]DescriptionMt. Forbes buttress; 2 US Climbers on West Ridge route.jpg |
English: Shot taken from a Mt. Forbes buttress; 2 US Climbers on the West Ridge route (at the bottom, right of centre). They've already taken the diagonal across the NW Face and are paralleling just inside the West Ridge. As it happened, they were using a static belay (not uncommon for a party of 2), where one of them typically anchors to the mountain with climbing devices and belays the other for 2 rope-lengths, and then they swap such that the lead climber becomes the belayer for another 2 rope-lengths. This party of 2 ended up getting to the summit, but they ran out of daylight on the way back down and thus spent the night at the rocks visible at the bottom of this slope. Our party of 3 on the rope used a running belay on the assumption that if one person fell, the other two would be able to stop the fall, thus saving much time by not swapping positions and not setting up anchors; we never had to stop. |
