Mt Whitney Zone Forums General Discussion Ice climber falls, survives, brings back video

Ouch!
He seemed unable to self arrest (may have lost grip on ice axe(s), and I guess finally lost both - see other links). Did seem able to steer around most of the big rocks, but also found a couple. Guess is back side is in pain. Other article mentiond broken bones (ankles/leg?). Wow, lucky to survive.
