Kit Kat 

Very fun route. Watch yourself between the second and third bolts, the holds are there but they can be hard to find. Stick to the left above the second bolt for a little easier climbing.

The crux is the second to third bolt. Run out so really watch yourself. Probably closer to 5.8+. Maybe even pushing easy 5.9.

Someone added a [third] bolt...no more "runout". The nerve of some people! =)

No kidding, someone just up and added another bolt without asking?

People there are rules, no matter how loose they sometimes appear to be!

If it's not your route and you wnat to change it in some way how's about asking the FAist?? He or she might just say "OK go for it".
Or they might say "no way leave it alone", which you should then do!!!!!

What up!!!

FYI - We ran into the bolt-adder this weekend and he mentioned that he got Angel's permission (all the way from Afghanistan) before adding that bolt.

Yes it was Daryl. He just earned himself 20 feet of penalty slack the next time he climbs.

All is forgiven. Making a call to Afghanistan to add a bolt is way beyond the call of duty.

I guess I have to make another scary route :) HMMMM I wonder who put the bolt because I found out after the fact? Could it had been grani Mike hmmmm :) Hey...guys have fun and I can't wait to climb again...you guys have to see the potential that is over here. I guess on my standards is going to be a 5.7

The interesting part of this story is i haven't seen Brigette in a couple months.

Now I'm confused... The really, really interesting part is: Why would someone say they'd added a bolt if it wasn't them?

Only slightly less interesting is the fact that I've never met Daryl. Why haven't I ever met Daryl?

I met you a weekend or two before you dogged me on that photo belaying wo a helmet. In fact, you were belaying someone from that same spot [goodnplenty] when i met you. Must have been a heckuva night. ;)

All, don't fret over the bolt. It was a concerted effort and the FA is well aware; all involved parties have his eternal blessings. Thanks, Jimbo, for manning the Phalanx.. always nice to have a good deck gunner on your side!

Daryl, those of us that do need to protect each other from those that don't. Just doin' my job.

I glad it all came to a delightful conclusion.

Cheers,

Daryl - Must have been! Let's try that again sometime, when I'm conscious. :)

Fun route, especially towards the top. No run out anymore, very safe climb. Can anyone explain why the chains on most of these routes are way above an avoidable edge? Trying to prevent lowering and TR?
