I was camping in the Cuddleback lake beds with a friend and his old scout troop. They asked if I wanted to go with them to climb Fremont Peak and I happily obliged. after about 3 hours we finally got to the top. About 1/4 of the way down i got to a pretty steep rock face that was followed by an immediate 12-15ft drop. I got near the edge and found a lip in the rock face to grab onto, and as I was reaching over the ledge for some footing, the lip broke off.Ii fell and hit my face against the rock wall that was in front of me, and I broke my wrist trying to brace the impact. Once i landed on the ground, i had to climb the rest of the way down the mountain, as well as hike 5 miles back to the campsite. My worst fear about the fall? not thinking I'd be able to go to rocky!
