I am sorry to say Ammon had a serious base jumping accident yesterday.
He is in a hospital in Grand Junction where they are trying to save his foot.
I don't know the details of the accident. It was a jump off the Moab Rim. I think he hit the wall somehow.
I am sure he would love some support right now from his friends.
Hang in there Ammon you are strong!

Awful news. He is "strong like bull" though and will prevail one has to think.
What a wonderful character you are Ammon. And the best to you now when the rest of us tremble with you.
