    Accident in Sandthrax

    Heard something about a broken ankle in there this weekend. Anyone know how it happened?

    Hopefully they got out OK and all is well.

    This is interesting... There was a buildup in traffic to my video of Sandthrax followed by a spike on Thursday the 7th.

    This has happened a couple other times before documented descents and a couple additional times with no report. If I'm looking for the spike, I can usually tell when someone is going for Sandthrax. 53% of the traffic that day was from Utah, and 33% was from Colorado.

    My main questions are:
    Who was it?
    Where are they from (to match up with the video traffic)?
    Where in the canyon did it happen?
    What happened?
    How did they get out?

    Perhaps Rob, you could on your YouTube page ask people to report anything interesting to a thread here on Bogley.

    Love the vid, especially leading the crux. Very evocative!
