CAT SLAB CC / Open but

Posted by ff113 on 8/4/2008 on ff113's blog

Local word is the cat slab is open. I went their last Thursday and a for sale sign was up and the no trespassing sign was down. We were having a great day when I went for a perfect finger lock on old d. I soon discovered that a YELLOW JACKET nest was in the hole. Within seconds I was screaming batting my face and leaped off the rock. My partner was wondering what the heck I was doing. With the noise of the road he did not hear me. After the swarm ended I climbed back up to my quick draw replaced it quickly with a beaner and lowered. Then I ripped through my gear to find my Epi pen.

Hand injuries

Posted by rosieclimber11 on 7/20/2008 on rosieclimber11's blog

So are the dangers of slip n slides.............this is what happens when you mix a liitle drinking and a lot horse-in around. So what to do, I really don't think its broke,swelling,pain and some limited motion; no deformaty noted. So I will see how I feel tomorrow if its worse I'll get it xrayed. It sucks b/c I can't climb for several wks. Anyone had somethg like happen, how did you tx it? But we had fun doin it, we where a bunch of adults acting like kids, tooo funny!
