Wow what an adventure. Hiking out on a broken ankle. Now that is tough. British or not.I wonder how you could have kept this from blowing up as an SAR.
C was hurt and you told people that. I am surprised that you never passed anyone from SAR teams on your hike down to let them know to call off the SAR. Must have been just near misses between you getting C down and going back for your stuff. Were you aware an SAR team had been called for?
