Seen at the Gunks recently. Not a hex, not even aluminum. Maybe some flavor of that (Australian-made??) plastic chocks/nuts gear?

What route was this on? There are those plastic nuts used in some places in Europe where they don't want to damage the rock... Maybe that's it?

I think it's an artificial heart valve.

I have some plastic nuts made by Mammut that are 1980s vintage. They are solid though, never seen hollow plastic nuts before not even in the Nuts Museum. I would say someone was having some fun especially given the cord and the fact that the "nut" has grove in it.

Yeah, I've had dogs long enough to recognize a beef bone when I see one.

That's very rare. . .
A vertical crack in the Gunks.
So you didn't booty it? Can you say where that is? m( really where is that? I'll guess Mayor Of The Gunks ) If no one claimes it in lost & found, That 'Nut' would bring money at the Rock & Snow Annex consignment shop.

I was going to ask if it was a nut or a hex...but it looks like it only has four sides, so maybe it's a quex?

Does that have something to do with the note on the info station at the über Fall? Looks like the same cordage.
