I drove 8 hours to Hueco Tanks from Phoenix about 10 years ago on a Friday night and got up the next morning to go bouldering. I hopped on a relatively easy problem--to warm up and a hold snapped off--which resulted in the removal of the entire pad from my R.H. index finger.

Outcome:

16 hours of roundtrip driving

<1 boulder problem sent.

So, that was my worst flapper.
