Eric sitting down on the job, the only time I saw him sit while wearing the shirt. He did a great job of getting folks to look through the scopes and telling them what was going on.
He did try to steal my climbing gear to juggy up the rope, but I stole it back. LOL!

WBraun said We've been doing this for 40 years.
What's new that we don't know?
Werner used a 1:1 to Peter Pan me off of the Bismark with a full haul bag clipped to my harness. I swung easily 100-150 feet out from the ledge into space while the guy belaying from the ledge screamed "hooooooly shiiiiiiiiiit!!!" Werner and the crew had jumars clipped to their harnesses and were running downhill with just a directional off a tree so that we could get home as soon as possible.
Now that was an interesting haul system.

Finally a member of the team posted a video somewhere besides Facebook. Here is a link to Amy Hinkle's video.

I'm the first photo after the rappel. Give me a shout out if you saw me at the bridge.

Video was interesting, a little short on technical details and way to much in the way of horsie shots, but I enjoyed it.
So did you pull the rope? that must have been a real mess to cleanup.
What was in the pig? Pot? The tools would never figure that one out!
