Pinns on the regular route
« on: December 05, 2005, 03:54:34 PM »
Munge,



The pinns are still there. I think Brad did the route before us and can confirm it as well.



Unfortunatly, I didn't take the time to see how cams would work in the rock.  They might but the crack is a bit rotten (by my standards).



But hey, it's only 5.5 and the feral rat soloed it.

I've gotten cams in there. Small aliens. Though the flare to the West, so i if you came out it might pull unless you set an offset alien.

Sure you can cut up and do a 5.6 variation after clipping the 1st pin. But it was fun to keep traversing and traversing. Clipping those rusty hunks of metal and thinking...how old are these pins...sure they'll hold, seemed like each one got worse and worse.



Maybe it would be better to climb it in knickers, lugged soled boots and  tieing into the rope with a bolin..
