Out of Control Ice Accident at Mt. Index. Chipmunks, Rock Climbers, Lake Serene 7/30/11

After sliding out of control for about 800 ft. I struck a small sharp rock as I plowed through a patch of rocks on the ice. I was happy to stop. It reminded me I could die if I slid off a cliff accidentally because when there is no control and you want to stop... dang! No control to stop... There were several seconds of no control. I was trying... ... ... The day started out as you can see... I could not ignore the obvious... i had to get it stitched... And I got that done. I wrapped it and still filmed the rest of the movie. I am happy to have filmed the chipmunks. They are that cute. I spent 3 hours hiking back to the car. And within an hour I was getting it cleaned out and stitched. I was really happy to have that completed because I use my arms and want them both to be in good shape. That's why I was happy. Yes is was a nice day too. (still is)
