32岁的蒙大拿州护士David Cifaldi在攀登该州最高峰花岗岩峰时遭遇意外，被44英寸长的登山杖刺穿左臂下方的肌肉1。事件发生于2024年7月20日上午9:441。经过自我评估，Cifaldi判断伤口未伤及关键器官，决定自行下山1。他表示："我相信这是在胸壁外。不过是皮肉之伤。"1
Cifaldi与两位登山同伴使用卫星通讯设备通知了当地救援队，随后用超过6小时的时间独立完成下山1。他共下降了约10英里距离和5000英尺高度，最终在下午约3:30抵达停车处1。搜救队指挥官Ty Williams表示："没有危险威胁他人。他不想要我们的帮助，所以我们不会违反他的权利或意愿强行提供帮助。"1
Cifaldi随后自行驾车前往医院，医生取出登山杖为其包扎伤口1。他最终返回工作岗位1。
A 32-year-old nurse from Montana was struck by a trekking pole while climbing Granite Peak, the state's highest mountain at 12,800 feet, on July 20, 2024 1. David Cifaldi fell during the ascent and was impaled in the muscle below his left arm by the 44-inch pole 1. After assessing his injury, Cifaldi determined that no vital organs had been damaged and decided to descend the mountain on his own rather than request rescue assistance 1.
Cifaldi and two climbing companions used satellite communication equipment to notify local rescue personnel of the incident 1. He then spent more than six hours hiking down approximately 10 miles and 5,000 feet in elevation to reach the parking area, arriving around 3:30 p.m. 1. "I believe this is outside the chest wall. It's just a flesh wound," Cifaldi stated regarding his injury 1. Upon reaching his vehicle, he drove himself to the hospital, where doctors removed the trekking pole and treated the wound 1. He subsequently returned to work 1. Rescue Commander Ty Williams noted that because Cifaldi posed no danger to others and declined assistance, authorities respected his decision not to intervene 1.
