It was difficult to sleep thatnight knowing Jason was still high up on the mountain.However,rain and winds and clouds moved into the Pickets during the night ofJuly 5. This made it impossible for the helicopter to safely airliftJason off of the route on July 6 as had been planned. Jason was able todescend about 200 feet to an overhanging ledge system in replica Bvlgari watch order to getsome protection from the elements. Unfortunately, throughout the day onJuly 6, the weather continued to deteriorate, and via radio Jasonreported that it had began to snow at his location on the mountain.
This made even a ground rescue (by Donn and I or a Search and Rescue team)quite hazardous. Feeling as though we were abandoning our friend Jasonbut realizing that we would be better positioned in Marblemount, Donnand I hiked out of Crescent Creek basin on the afternoon of July 6.Donnand I spent much of July 7 (today) discussing the situation replica Japanese Rolex watches with therescue team located in Marblemount. In every way, Donn stepped up tothe challenge of communicating with the rescue partywhile I mostly sat back and listened, occasionally contributing photosI had taken of the accident scene. Given the weather and conditions, ithas been decided that our best option is to try to wait for a window toairlift Jason off of the route.
Currently, he is in a safe spotunderneath a ledge, has bivy gear and a supply of food and water, andis in contact with the rescue team via radio. He is hanging in there,and despite his situation maintains high spirits and a calm head. Hetruly is a hero, as his first aid skills and willingness to stay withSteve likely saved Steves life. Few people have the replica Rolex Ladies watches mental toughnessand selflessness Jason is currently displaying.There is hope for a break in the weather within the next few days, which will allow Jason to be airlifted off of the route.Please keep Jason in your thoughts and prayers. He is a true hero and is facing a situation no climber ever wants to endure. (This is the current status of the situation as of 6:40pm on July 7.)
