Of the three of us, Jason had the strongestfirst aid skills, and he stepped up to the challenge, taking control ofaddressing Steves injuries. Under Jasons calm directions, we bandagedSteves head wound and created a makeshift split for his left leg usingthe aluminum stay from Donns pack. Steve began to shiver and displaysigns of shock, so we replica Cartier watches layered him with our extra coats. We wereencouraged by the fact that Steve tried to help put his arms into thesleeves as we told him what we were doing. He began to be responsiveenough to complain of the pain in his leg, and asked repeatedly whathad happened.Weagreed that the quickest way to get help was to find a spot where wecould get reception on Jasons cell phone.
On the previous days, we hadbeen able to get service from the summits of both Inspiration andDegenhardt. The quickest way to get to a location of cell service wouldbe to continue climbing the buttress to the summit of Terror. We formeda plan. Jason would stay with Steve. Donn and I would continue uptowards the summit as quickly (and safely) as we replica Omega watches could and try toinitiate a helicopter rescue before the night set in. Making the phonecall in time was crucial, as Steves chances of survival would decreaseif he had to spend the night on the mountain, especially consideringthat the deteriorating weather forecast for the coming days.
Donnand I left the accident scene at 12pm to simulcimb the rest of theStoddard buttress to the false summit. When we passed the location ofSteves fall, we saw a large dihedral-shaped fresh gash. It is likelySteve had been standing on this section when a sizable replica Tag Heuer watches chunk of whathad appeared to be solid rock tore loose below him. He just happened tobe in the wrong place at the wrong time. Every climbers nightmare.AsDonn and I simulclimbed towards the summit, we checked repeatedly forcell phone service, but to no avail.
