Description 

Climb the chimney/slot/gully immediately left of "Feeding Frenzy". No fixed anchors, but an easy walk-off around either side of the MBA Buttress. An obvious, but forgettable line.

Standard gear rack.

In Hubbel's guide this is labeled How Rebolting.

Randy, you are correct. This route is called How Rebolting and is not an Alan Nelson first ascent.

david, why on Earth would you quote Hubble's guide as some kind of authority? Hubble has always named cracks that were never climbed. His first book to the Platte was called The Brown Book of Lies. No FA parties are listed usually. When ever you see names involving butts and defecation, that a pretty good hint that Pete's making up storys again.

Please remove your comments about Alan. He died three months ago. Your presenting yourself as a guy who likes to kick people when they're down.
