| I don’t have any really great pics of this guy, it was hard to see what all was wrong with him anyhow. The most noticeable thing was his right arm which was broken, but he was also covered with numerous cuts and tears; the results of falling down the mountainside and landing on a boulder. Ouch!!! |

| They wrapped his broken arm up with casting cloth, so that when it hardened it protected the arm from further movement and injury on the way down the trail. |

| We don’t set broken bones here at the clinic, so that was an automatic trip out right there. We left at around 10:30 and arrived at the Ti Guave hospital shortly after midnight. We were able to round up a doctor in about half an hour, and by 2 A.M. were over at Darv and Jo’s for a nap before hitting the trail again. Turned out the man’s arm had a compound fracture… |
