Hello Folks; Just got back from a
day in Marble Canyon with Gary Wolkoff and Lyle Knight. The day started
with more cloud than anticipated which played a role in the days objectives. We
had to settle for Sisyphus via the 5.10+ direct first pitch start. Of
significant concern was the missing nut and hanger from bolt 3
and 5. I will be there next week(Tuesday?) and I will
replace them for sure.
While we finished the final pitch the rains came.
What was significant here was how little amount of rain it took to start
moving small rocks. Even small rocks are sharp and can cut facial
skin easily. Something to keep in mind if the clouds really open
up. Cheers Bob
