From my discussion with SAR when I was driving out the person they described (accent/hair color/Michigan number) met the description of the guy that camped next to us on the South side of Como. So the person that was injured did not summit Blanca that day and then go for Ellingwood and fall?mountainlover153 wrote: ↑Fri May 16, 2025 8:14 pmThis is incorrect. You did not talk to the person that fell. They never descended that day to be able to meet someone else. They also didn't camp right at como.rzback wrote: ↑Sat Mar 15, 2025 12:28 pm He camped next to us overnight at Como. We talked that morning early about the possibility of storms rolling in that day and not having time to bag Blanca and Ellingwood both possibly. He left before us and we met again as we were going up Blanca and he was going down and about to head to Ellingwood and we told him we were not going to try both with the clouds moving in and his response was "we got time"... By the time we made it back to Como from bagging Blanca it had started to storm up on the peaks...
Serious fall on Ellingwood Point on 8/4
