Official Rebolting and Route Hardware suggestion thread

[NOAL]

There's a re-bolting master list that John maintains here on the site.  I don't see Anchor Scream on there.  Next time I am in that area I can check it out.  Thanks for posting on the forum.  If you go to Pinns on the reg please post more!

Went out there Jan 29 with Gavin this year. Was not rebolted.
The anchors to the right that are used for the 5.11 and triangle skirt route consists of cold shuts and could also use replacement. Clock is ticking, those two routes might get another repeat by the time Brad's 3rd edition pinnacles guidebook comes out.

The 3rd edition will be authored by AI Brad Young.  Just think if there was an Android Brad forever roaming Pinnacles between the months of Oct-May.  Would it continue to create lists and itinerary?  Maybe it would start work on "A Senior Citizen Climber's Guide to Pinnacles National Park"  All the ratings would be bumped up and the Monolith wouldn't be in there.

ClimbGPT, create me a list of route descriptions in the style of known Pinnacles Climbing crank Brad Young. Ensure all the routes have something odd about them, like a fixed pin, a third anchor bolt that uses a star dryvin that's been left for history and no other reason, or something similar. Routes should be no harder than 5.10d, so that BradBot can continue to climb all routes at Pinnacles at 5.10 or lower in Good Style (TM).

Two days without reception. Back to it only to find that I have not one but three of you that need beatings. Give me time, I’ll get to it….

 Sounds like the android has the real Brad tied up somewhere in the Park.

Anybody know how old the bolts and hangers are for the underground section of Subterranean Tango?

[mynameismud]

I could be wrong, but I think they are original.  Moves are not bad, one and a half moves then backs off. 

If you go down there check out Deck Chairs, good bolts and some fun moves.  Weird climb but kind of cool, I have done it a few times.

I think they are original.

Tom Davis had comments about those bolts a few months ago on Mountain Project (where the route names are - naturally - screwed up). Have you seen those?

[burnsbabe]

Seeing it now. There isn't a separation for the full version vs just the above ground section on MP. I'd be interested in figuring out how to replace them, but I've only installed from scratch (which you know) vs rebolting.
