Lost Gear on the Bastille Crack

My partner and I had to bail this afternoon on Pitch 4 of the Bastille Crack because of storms. We rappelled off a bail anchor about 20' shy of the Pitch 4 belay because it was too wet to continue and the lightning was a little unnerving.

If you are on the Bastille Crack tomorrow and retrieve the gear (red, white and blue tape), I would greatly appreciate it if you'd return it. If you're so gracious, I'm willing to buy a couple six packs of you beer of choice. Send me a message please.

On another note, while we rapped from the Werk Supp anchors to the March of Dimes anchors, I found a cam and quickdraw someone dropped. If you can name the brand/size of each I'm happy to return them to their owner.

Cheers,
Nick

Saw you guys...coming off the whales tail and were feeling bad about your position. Glad you made it down, that storm was fierce! We were trying to get out as fast as we could.

Thanks to an awesome climbing community we got all of our gear back. Many thanks to Monty & DavidT for the help.
