This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

My guess would be "Thank God I can take a little break here, my hands and arms had started shaking with exhaustion.... I wonder if a helicopter could come close enough to drop a rope to me?"

Apparently it's 1800 feet up and "only" another 200 feet to get to the top of that climb.

Or so I'm reading from safe in my bed!

That's a fair interpretation, I suppose.

Still, I think the only thing I would be thinking there would be some variation of "why the hell did I come up here and how soon can I be safely back aground!"
