The following routes have been rebolted.

Peach Face. (Northern Sector)

The bolt that gives access to Green Stone and Well Stoned has been replaced as well as all bolts on Matt and Jim’s route Power Your Mind just to the left.

All carrots either snapped or could be pulled after a few knocks with a gympie.

Use No SLCD’s has a new bolt and the old carrot literally fell out after a couple of light taps.

All bolts on Dessert have been pulled and will be replaced on my next visit.

The Terrace.

The petzl expansion rivet on Disintegration has been replaced and I have bolted a new line just to the left (see First Ascents).

All bolts are 316 marine grade stainless steel machine bolts glued with epoxy.

Enjoy 🙂

The bolts on Dessert have now been replaced, other routes that have also been rebolted include Book of Funk (banana wall) and The Future Grins (the terrace, looks like a great line!).

Thanks to Jim Nevin and Johnboy for their kind donations.

I will head to Moses Rocks next and rebolt the whole crag..

The bolts on the route to the right of the second pitch of Sirius has been rebolted (nice work Micko). We dont know what its called or who put it up but the bolts were shite. About grade 17/18 and is now equipped with 316 fixe eyebolts courtesy of Climbing Anchors. Thanks to Steve Hawkshaw!

P.S Fires burnt all the way up to the cliff at Margies (wallcliffe) but caused no real damage thankfully. Even some of the bees remain, but now with very little surrounding flora they might not hang around…
