Yep it was at Andersens, the dude involved wasn't climbing at the time, he was scrambling up the side of a boulder to get a better view of the area (I think) because it was his first time there. As stated, he fell about four metres onto a rock, and tumbled a few more metres down some other rocks. He had a few nasty cuts and scrapes, fractured cheekbone, a small degree of haemoraging in his skull (isn't serious), broken thumb, and some sought of damage to his shoulder, I think thats about it. It could have been much worse, he is in good spirits and is mostly pissed about the time it will take for his thumb to heal cos it means he cant climb! The guy has some smart friends who acted quickly calling the ambos and ses, who were a pretty good lot, also lucky there was a dude in the car park who had a first aid kit and new some stuff who helped out before the ambos got there, cheers to him!
