Description Suggest change

Very fun lean-across-and-swing leads to some of the best pinn's knob pulling. The lean-across may seem intimidating, but after committed is easy.

Protection Suggest change

5 bolts, chains atop.

A note about the glue-in bolts from ASCA Executive Director, Greg Barnes, who installed them in 2001:

"They wiggled since day 1 - the early Tortugas had radial ribs but nothing vertical. To avoid wiggling the rock had to be notched (we didn't know that). 

There was lots of discussion and also testing early on, even freely rotating Tortugas were full strength."
