I was on the west side too.
I got started on rebolting Numbskulls Needle.
I really didn't want to work on it but after replacing the first bolt I realized how desperately it needs to be done.
The bolts are all 5/16's studs sticking way out - with super flimsy sleeves (hardware store junk).
I'll finish it next time out and post some pictures.

I went to Oh Henry! and replaced the 3 SMC hangers and torqued all the bolts - top to bottom.
I had to do some significant surfacing on two of the bolts, since the footprint on the Fixe replacement hangers is so much bigger.
All the other bolts have Metolius hangers and were close to torque. I took pictures of all of them.

I'll update the Master List and give a full report when I finish Numbskull.

I did some other work too. It was a full day.

Hollered at the Machete crew from Oh Henry!
I couldn't believe I could hear Kat whoo hooing at me across all that distance    

No mention of the tree booty?

What was the combined height of your team?

Pulled some cord and rap rings off the tree.

Combined height - each of us is five feet nothing - you do the math.  

I quested with Deb, Marnye and Nick on Old Original today.  First time for all three of them - weather was awesome.  Temps hit 74 by 2:30.

Our rent-a-potty door on the job site was inscribed with a sharpie as Trump Tower sometime earlier this week. Someone was obviously oozing inspiration.

 

        Holy Shoot!
That was your job site?

No offense to any GOPs around here but I think TRUMP is the newest swear word.

I'm an amateur compared to Katie. She knows all the cool words.

One of the latest trends? Calling someone who's an a##hole a "douche canoe."

That's so last year...

Huh, I hadn't heard about Petzl sending you replacement holders... I'll have to see if I can find my Rocpec holder with the busted spring and send it off to them.

They have a 3 year warranty.

 Brad should start a thread about swearing technique

 He is both a master swearer and able refrainer when he chooses.
