Comments: I went up last night and discovered that the pipe is gone?!? No more farmed ice above Mickey's??? Anyone know why? It's just the original cascade again.... It's in enough to climb... but it's not as fun as it used to be with the pipe pouring water everywhere!

Comments: Top Anchors by the small tree have suffered freeze thaw fracturing. DO NOT USE THESE TOP BOLTS. CONSIDER AN ALTERNATE DESCENT...
On 5-9-08 we attempted to rap the new (07' face descent) but upon a routine inspection of the bolts noticed a very hollow sound from under the bolts. The surrounding rock still sounds great but we noticed the surface bouncing and knocking between and around the new hangers.
On our approach we observed a party descend this line without incident. When we learned... more >>
