Skully will have to tell the whole story...since I was sworn to secrecy..minor wounds up to and including about a 30 stitch head wound...He did to his credit attempt some poorly executed gymnastic type moves as he ragdolled down the steep talus..I was about 30 ft. up on my route ,so I was looking down at him..and all I could see was his bloody melon..It looked bad.. head wounds bleed alot,and this was a good 8 inch to the skull slice ,he looked like that carrie movie chick, named carrie, that had all the blood dumped on her..I got down quick..but the skulster was like no big deal ...I could not believe he was'nt dead..but I can't say...said I would'nt..

Is that how he got his nickname - assuming that skully is a he, that is?

What was he doing at the time? Belaying you?

Didn't pull everything, just 2 points.
