Naked climbing is almost never a good idea, but it’s probably worse when you’re high on mushrooms. At least in this case the naked guy, a yet-unidentified 25-year-old who had apparently scampered up the First Flatiron in Boulder last Friday, was rescued before he got hurt. There are some easy (when sober) 5.3s on the giant fin of rock — but there are also some tough-to-protect 5.8s, especially when you’re literally trying to protect your own skin. Post rescue, the cops busted the climber’s friend, Jon Schuttenberg, who’d called 911 and was later charged with possession of the illegal fungi.
