It was a guy named Joe from Ontario who came down by himself and just hooked up with whomever he could find to climb. He fell while on lead and decked...maybe Awol??? Not sure about the route. Not sure how high up he was but the people at the scene said he was talking and having a conversation. He ended up with about 12 stitches and possible concussion.
That is all I know.

I've seen many falls on AWOL that resulted in someone lightly touching the ground or hovering about one foot from the ground.

That's probably why the sherif was there. Checking for his papers.

I'm cool...I had to make like I was a Canadian to save face. It's hard being by yourself and looking for belay victims at roadside....
