hey - left a draw on the last bolt of this route. it's a petzl spirit. I left it 9/22/16 in the evening when it was too dark for me to clean the route and I didn't have a headlamp.

I hate to say it, but that is probably not going to be rejoining your rack

Animal World doesn't see much in the way of crowds during the week. I'd just go this afternoon, it should still be there.

Your comment history looks like you've got a history of leaving whole Petzl Spirits as bail gear. You might want to go buy a 5 pack of cheap biners, and switch your draw for a biner when you bail. It'll certainly save you some money!

I'd be embarrassed to ask for one quickdraw back. Just the price of bailing.

But that's just me.

So you had time to clean all the others, but not the last one before the one (sort of) hard move on the route?

Hence my question. Why not just spend an extra 30 seconds to clean the rest, instead of leaving one draw.

Yes and 30 seconds makes it suddenly too dark to clean one more draw.
