On the way up I went through half my first-aid kit for a late 60-ish guy—that was on blood thinners—that took a tumble near the top. Patched up his arm, leg and profusely bleeding finger. He was okay once cleaned up and bandaged—stopped the bleeding but, his clothes and socks looked soaked. He was OK to continue down. When I was heading back down I spoke to some people coming up that had passed by him and were wondering what could have happened to him.
