No Lucy, see, there was an attempt to upgrade the original City Park bolt ladder... probably before you began climbing. They slammed in some 1/4 inchers and basically made a mess of things. The bolts that are in there now aren't the ones I am referring to as botched. Those are the "third incarnation". So, now you don't have to knock me in the head, unless you still want to.

quote: Originally posted by Peter Puget: Actually you are close but actually incorrect with your "reaction" correction. The whole TC thread was in fact started because a mysterious hero was warning of defective bolts. In your replies you condemed both the original replacement and defective replacement.That thread was my awakening to the amazing world of online BS. He isn't all that mysterious. Anyway, I remember the defectives being in the first replacement, and then he replaced those with "good" bolts. What is a "reaction" correction?

Who told you that, Fred? quote: If I may ask exactly what reaction do you get from the bolt ladder on City Park. Peter, it's an inanimate object. It can't react.No matter. Are you talking the original, the botched upgrade, or the current incarnation?

If you'd said "peepee", yes.

Bend over Lucy, I've got a lure for ya.

Yeah, probably seventh grade at that.

Thanks Lucy!

quote: Originally posted by Cpt.Caveman: Peter Pubic versus ScottPeePeeHead What a fight of wit on one side and arrogance on the other. Oops maybe a little of both on each side So, I ask again; are you in your early teens?

quote: Originally posted by Peter Puget: You are right they are cracks routes. I'll give you a hint the hard one begins whith an "S". Are you the same guy that once gave a certain person loads of shit for replacing the bad bolts on Town Crier on Rec.Climbing? I wasn't exactly looking for a game show ...So when you say rap bolted, are you referring to pro, anchors, both? Yeah, that was me. They weren't "bad" bolts. Merely old.It wasn't "loads", just some.So what?

Peter Puget sez:"For those who don’t know the first 5.10 valley routes had rap placed bolts." Now, my memory isn't what it used to be (which was bad), so I would have to go look it up, but I believe the first Valley 5.10's were crack routes.To which routes are you refering?

Then I will be hailed as cool by all right Already been done many times. I've been up Sisu. Weren't no big thing.As for the others, I can't say.The stainless steel(A0)bolt ladder off of Big Honker sure is an abomination though.

[ 12-04-2001: Message edited by: MysticNacho ] Yeah it's kind of funny how a thread starting with a TR of an aid climb ends up being a bickerfest about bolting. The deed is done. Nobody's mind is going to be changed.

quote: Originally posted by Cpt.Caveman: Man if someone were to heckle me for drinking\smoking and climbing they would be doing it all day. I think I puffed my way all the way up Prusik Peak once this summer Man I must have been outta control that whole day. Rob and I once soloed up to the railroad bolts on the GN slab with a bottle of Jim Beam. There were a couple of guys who were trying to get their stuck rap rope out of the crack when we arrived. We stepped off to the side to watch and Rob pulled out the bottle. We each took a big pull. The guy next to us looked at us as if we had worms crawling out of our eye sockets. I was truly impressed with the shock and revulsion these guys showed at a couple of drunkards standing next to them on what they must have considered technical ground. We wished them well and soloed back down to do some bouldering along the base of the lower wall. To better times

quote: Originally posted by W: Scott- Did you need any pins for p2 (above Cheeto)? I got to Cheeto Ledge last winter but didn't have time for the second pitch. Looked like KB's/arrows might be needed. We didn't take a hammer. The original plan was to do the Green Dragon clean, which didn't pan out.I remember needing a variety of cam sizes above Cheto, bathooks for at least two holes, and a variety of nuts (stoppers, RP's, brass offsets).You might find a cam hook or two useful, though we didn't have any. I think those loweball slider nut thingies might see some action, but again, we didn't have any.

quote: Originally posted by pope: Great story, ScottP. I think I heard a version of this from Rob, if it's the same Rob I have in mind. I believe it is the same Rob. I have given him the nickname Corn, if you know what I mean.

quote: Originally posted by Lambone: Hey Scott, when did you do that route? Recently...? So there is a new bolt where the flake was. That's sad, a bat hook would have kept the exitement alive... It was a couple of years ago.Yeah, a new shiny 3/8ths. Though I clipped it without delay, it had the smell of a chicken bolt, probably due to the lack of totally bomber gear below.
