Abseiler hurt on Bluff Mountain, Warrambungles 14-Jun-2016 At 7:48:35 PM Eamonn

Hey,

The article is mostly full of 'unverified facts'. Briefly:

I was one of the climbers on the ledge with my friend who had taken a fall. We were climbing Bastion Buttress and we think we got off-route about 90m below the summit. My friend took a fall and hit his head (but didn't pass out). I was able to reach him and we set off a PLB about 6pm. We had phone reception as well to co-ordinate with the rescue teams involved and we had 2 other friends helping out at the top (they had been climbing another route).

The rescue team managed to reach us at 9:30 am and we were hauled to the top.

We will post a full trip report soon. We are all okay now though.

Thanks,
Eamonn
