Bolt Report

Original Report
Reported By: | Eric Nelson |
Reported on: | 23 Mar 2014 |
Issue: | Worn |
Bolt Number: | Anchors |
Severity: | 5 |
Description: | Someone used quick links to attach a set of nylon dogbones with aluminium biners to the last link of each chain. They may or may not be ok for now but I wasn't willing to trust them for cleaning or top roping. If I had had a knife or wrench with me I would have pulled them. They won't last forever and my concern is someone trusting them and falling from the anchors. Also, since the nylon dogbones are attached to the quick links at the bottom of the chain I had to run the rope through a chain link somewhere in the middle of the chain to clean on rappel but then pulling the rope was a pain in the ass. I plan on getting back to funk rock sometime in the next month or two so if they're still there I'll probably just cut them off. |
