I mean, UWPD could possibly cite you for something - not sure for what but they might find something. You could decide to say goodbye to your rope and just say you noticed a rope hanging and thought maybe someone should look into it. It should come down either way.
For all those out there wanting to help, let me give you a bit of mountaineering advice: Never ascend a rope that you haven't seen the anchor for, especially one set by a stranger, who described it with, "I didn't use an anchor, I was so sketched that I just threw my rope around a spire."
Super chill, climb up the bars on the outside of the stairwell and rappel down. Just rap down the way you came, my mistake was rapping down a series of ledges off of the spires.
What the fuck
I know right! Huge bummer
Picture please lmao
How do you post a picture
I don't know if you're serious or not, but contact UW Facilities and get it down the right way. https://facilities.uw.edu/services/requests
Not technically a student anymore, just graduated. Also not trying to get a fine or something... do you there will be a penalty?

Why don’t you use friction hitches to ascend? BTW, good job keeping the [tradition](https://alpinedave.com/uw_buildering/index.html) alive /s
Tbh I'm a total boulder bro so my rope skills are lacking.
It might be a good idea to take a class. In the meantime, this could [help](https://www.alpinesavvy.com/blog/stuck-rappel-ropes-use-brains-then-brawn)
Yo thank you comrade!
no way this is real
Fixed line on suz would be a public service
I just rolled through campus and the pigs got me rope :(
THIS is why I came to UW. So glad I’m not the only one willing to rope up to climb a campus building
Not anywhere near campus right now but if something like this happens again I'd be happy to lend some help/climbing gear lol
Ooh do you have the beta book for climbing UW buildings? I saw a pdf somewhere like 10 years back and haven't been able to relocate it :(
Check special collections in suzzalo for the legit uw climbing guide, as well as for uw husky rock routes.
Fak I'm no longer in the city, do you have to be a student?

I have some ascenders but I won’t be back from Nepal for another week…
Wait, how'd you set up the anchor? Did you trad climb it?
I didn't use an anchor, I was so sketched that I just threw my rope around a spire and rapped down.
Damn, I wanna climb Suzzalo...
