Access Issue: Warning! Stainless steel bolts are suspect near the coast!
Details
You can read about the warning here. There is extensive rebolting being done by the Thaitanium Project, which has already rebolted the vast majority of popular routes in the main areas. Be informed!
Description
This area is new for Mountain Project, and is just getting started. Feel free to contribute!
Warning : stainless-steel bolts are suspect near the coast. There is extensive rebolting being done to replace suspect bolts with titanium glue-ins.
Escher Wall has a few different sectors. The main wall has a handfull of easy climbs that have all been re-bolted with Titanium, making this a great place for beginners.
A huge cave with a steep wall to its right and another smaller cave to the right of that. Lots of sun exposure. Apparently you can walk thru a cave and rappel to the Thaiwand wall; bring a headlamp if you plan to do that.
Inspect bolts carefully. If the are not Titanium, they are probably bad.
