[Hide Comment] Unfortunately like other climbs around here, some hardware was stolen. There is only one quicklink, directly to the right bolt (with no chain in between). The right bolt is solid though. The left nut wasn't even fully tightened after they stole the hardware but we tightened it with a wrench today. Oct 27, 2025
