So I'm climbing around on the Wind Tower today and run into a almost new red Camalot on the last pitch of Breezy and a nice #4 Camalot stuck in the fist crack exit of the first pitch of Calypso. I think both will come out if someone with skill would work on them (that doesn't describe me). Hate to see them turn into permament fixtures like some of the other stuck pieces on Wind Tower.
Much rather see the fixed modern gear cleaned up around the canyon than the old pins people were discussing last year.
Not sure, but the red cam may be mine from back in September or so. It was a brand new 0.1 x4 and I merely stuck it in past the trigger on a crack too thin for a nut tool or wire to free it. Probably 5' from the top of the last pitch. It was supposed to be a super casual outing for my wife, and I was pissed as I instantly realized what I had done. If it's made it this long, it's probably there for the long haul.
