It's a RURP? Why what have you been doing outside of Pinns that might interest you in a RURP?

I'm impressed to see a modern climber who is (apparently) interested in using a RURP. Nowadays it seems that, instead of using these older types of tools, all the aid climbers just want to play with their Peckers.  ;D

I've placed a RURP at the Pinns on Mustache. Even equalized it with a #1 tomahawk.

Totally held long enough for me to exhale before they both blew (along with the blade below it) and I hit the ground on my back from 7-10 feet up.

Now that I have this hardware I need to figure out a place to use it. Maybe some exploratory hard aid activity in Southern Yosemite? Balloon Dome comes to mind.

Just read Cobbeldik's Premeditated TR... not sure if I am terrified or intrigued.

The two aren't mutually exclusive. Ask Cobbledik about that!

Falconry Brad. I play with my Hawks. My Peckers sit in a box in the garage.

Mud Falconry???

Glad they don't appear much @ the Pinns.
I'm not worthy.

It is probably about the smallest piece of equipment that can be pounded in...just saying.

Causing trouble when not climbing.
