Quote: | To reach another ledge about 15 feet higher, he had to toss the rope up and loop it over a small rock spike. Disaster was narrowly averted here, for after Chute had climbed hand-over-hand to reach the higher ledge he discovered that two of the three strands were severed[ ]. Chute spliced the rope, brought Kaartinen up, and the two soon reached the top of the north face. |
