sketchfest Posted March 23, 2004 Posted March 23, 2004 Can anyone tell me where the last bolt is before the anchors on this climb? I watched a guy take a HUUUUUGE whipper near the top of it yesterday. Musta scared the crap outa him cause he lowered off, packed up his stuff and headed out. Quote
ryland_moore Posted March 23, 2004 Posted March 23, 2004 Alot of folks who do the extension deliberately fall right at the top instead of clipping at the anchors for the extra rush of a huge, albeit safe 40 fter. He may have just been packing up because he was finished and leaving. Quote
RuMR Posted March 23, 2004 Posted March 23, 2004 There is an obvious resting spot that you can see from the ground (big hole, cam your elbo in there for a nice no hands rest )...the bolt is right there w/in reach...from there you truck on up for a ways and then cut left to wander up the arete...

sketchfest Posted March 23, 2004 Author Posted March 23, 2004 uhhhh…I don’t think I would ever want to take a 40 fter on purpose…”safe” or not!! Quote
ryland_moore Posted March 23, 2004 Posted March 23, 2004 Plus, if I remember correctly (only TR'ed it once and flailed like a greased pig) the laast bolt to the chains is fairly easy compared to the super thin crux sections below? Quote
