[Hide Comment] L L and L is an abbreviation for Lewd, Lecherous and Lascivious, reflecting Ed's view of the morons he had to work with in his job at the time. Jan 13, 2011

[Hide Comment] The lower part of this route got flamed in last summers fire. There is some spalding on the rock and, though I bounce tested the first bolt and it held okay, no one is sure how those old Rawl three piece would weather such heat. Be cautious of flakes and the bolts. Oct 25, 2013

[Hide Comment] I cleaned off the shards from the fire and replaced all the protection bolts with SS bolts last Tuesday. The start is a little harder now but the fire damage is off. I was concerned about the fire effect on those old rawl 5-piece, although they didn't sheer off and the third one was a real bitch to chop off, so I wonder if the fire really did much to them.
