SevereLoose / corroded boltResolved13 years ago
Pre-rebolt hazard, resolved 2013. The route original early-1990s 3/8-inch zinc-plated bolts were badly rusted and spinning; two snapped at the head during removal. On this severely overhanging route a lead-bolt failure would be high-consequence. Sources: Splitter Choss The Story of a New Bolt (2013); Mountain Project rebolting album.
Resolution: Rebolted March 2013 with 9 ClimbTech WaveBolt glue-ins plus CAMP stainless quick links and stainless chain and cable perma-draws. Now on modern stainless hardware.
