Rescue on Angels Landing 7-20-11 ?
I was on the 5:45 shuttle yesterday for our Mystery canyon trip and the bus driver said Angels landing was closed due to a technical rescue? Anyon have any information about that.
On a side note Mystery was very dry until the springs. We were out by 2pm. We took our time.IT ALWAYS LOOKS HIGHER FROM THE TOP!!!!

2 climbers doing N.E. Buttress route, but off route, both of whom took separate falls about 1/2 way up, sustained non-life threatening injuries, but serious nonetheless, and were stuck on a ledge with no way down. Were picked off from the ledge by a medic being lowered from the top on twin 1600' ropes and brought safely to the bottom.
