Brain aberrations during the above trip write-up were
caused by the distraction of our second trip of the night :
Explored the river by the side of the road below the toll road. Tackle :
one Ford Fiesta. Descended 30' pitch into streamway, with a couple of
mid-air turns too. time c 5 seconds, tackle written off.
The above trip led to a series of extraneous trips to Bad Aussee and
Salzburg hospitals where Simon and Julian were swindling the insurance with
their minor injuries (broken neck, broken sternum). It put an end to pushing
106 for the year, and we were naturally reluctant to indulge in any more
overnight trips.
