I chopper circled and landed at Mitre rock yesterday, presumably responding to an accident. It was there for about half an hour before leaving, does anybody have any details?

A person was injured in Deacon-Priest area. I've been told (I wasn't there) that they abseiled on an Grigri threaded back-to-front. Mail-times is reporting leg and pelvis injuries. Have to hope tgheir injuries aren't too bad.

According to the Mail-Times "serious but stable". So, not good but not as bad as it could have been.

Mail-Times this morning reports that he was discharged from Royal Melbourne Hosp later Sunday afternoon. So good news.

Seriously, what would you want to chop at Mitre? Oh, that's right, chains on a grade 7.
