MatthewS Posted August 3, 2009 Posted August 3, 2009 Given how many people are always hanging on it, replacing the first bolt of Smerk wouldn't be a bad idea. The two anchors on top of the Chemistry slab are also pretty lousy. Quote
kevbone Posted August 3, 2009 Posted August 3, 2009 Great idea. I dont even think the first bolt on smerk is a real bolt. More like bent metal that someone made in there garage. Quote
BillA Posted August 3, 2009 Posted August 3, 2009 Funny you should mention re-bolting at carver, we are on it. Will keep folks updated. Quote

corvallisclimb Posted August 28, 2009 Author Posted August 28, 2009 now there is no reason to not go up there and climb this route.  Smith Rock  The Wombat - Santiam Highway Ledges 14 lead bolts 6 anchor bolts  W/ Jim Ablao & Aaron Webb August 09  Most thanks for this goes to Jim for hiking up most of the gear and ropes. And fixing a line so I could jug up and discover the anchor had been half chewed through by a rat while I bounced around on it. Now go get some this is an incredible route. Quote

BillA Posted October 1, 2009 Posted October 1, 2009 Carver Cliff  About a month ago I replaced the first two bolts on Smerk and the anchor at the top of the crack to the right (the anchor most people traverse over to when they climb Smerk). Quote
beaconben Posted November 10, 2009 Posted November 10, 2009 I have not read this thread for a while. You rock Tyler. It is awesome that you and others are doing this. I can't wait to get on Santiam Hwy Ledges. Quote

letsroll Posted October 4, 2010 Posted October 4, 2010 interesting. Been on my list for a while. Guess it might be time to head down and explore a bit and see what kind of trouble I can get into Quote
