Ouch. Back at the belay after a fall. (view)

A good reason to not screw up! I fell on pitch 4 of the Reg. NW face and ripped off the tip of my pinky finger. Not sure how it happened, exactly. I think it must have gotten caught between the rope and a carabiner. Man did that hurt! The end result: 14 stitches and a failed attempt on Half Dome. We came back later, though, and sent it without problems.
