Admin Notes

Removed manky aluminum from chains and added quick link. We left large aluminum locker in place -- good condition. - Removed bolt #7 and filled the hole opening with epoxy putty. There was a horizontal fracture through the rock and bolt hole. There was not a good place for a bolt above or below. There is decent rock out right, but it is out of the bolt line. - Given these conditions, we hung a two foot perma-draw from the previously 8th bolt. You can clip the perma with the 6th bolt at your feet, but making clip is definitely harder. I am not sure if this is the best long-term solution. If you are at the Infirmary some time it would be worth taking a look to see if you think this is a reasonable solution. I attached an edited photo.(Rebolt the Red 2019)
