Two Climbers Are Safe After A Rope Mishap At American Fork Canyon

We're glad to hear the climbers were rescued safely and kudos to them for being experienced climbers as they both decided it wasn't a good idea to continue climbing as they were dealing with a malfunction with one of their ropes. Special thanks to the Utah County SAR team and other volunteers for coming to the rescue. As always, please be safe out there!
