Comments: Did this on 10-04-09. On rappel using 2x60m's I was 10 feet shy of the P3 anchors. The rock is bomber! I used a Red Zero and Blue Zero for P1. Built an Alternate Anchor system (Red, Blue, Yellow Zero) at P4 station because I felt that the P4 anchors were too far right of the bolted line.

Comments: I figured it was part of the whole "Outdoor Experience", you forget that this poser has only seen plastic holds for the last year or so. I swear that large tooth digging a hole in my left index finger was the only thing that kept me from blowing when I fired for that crappy sloper dish thing. What's your take on the rating Lee?
