What's the deal with the chair in RC?

As much as I don't like the idea of a stupid chair at the top of a route, I just think everyone should know that from the trail or even hiking up the sides a bit, you can't see the chair. So saying it's an eye sore for everyone is kind of out of place if you can't actually see it. Unless you have hawk eyes...and if you do and it bothers you THAT bad and you just can't mind your business by climbing your route or hike the trail without it ruining your day, then cut it or walk away.

We were hiking down the trail after climbing on probably the first day the chair was put up and it really hung out there like a sore thumb. It was annoying, but something temporary for a stunt...whatever. Having it all gone and holes patched is appreciated.

Coddles, did you yank the manky rap bolts up top too? (one too shallow, one too deep)

wait, youre saying they rapped in to do this and it wasnt on lead??? where have the ethics in the happy valley gone people??? JFC

Coddles,

As mentioned, I will get some beer to you if you drink, or other beverage of your choice. I live in Springdale but come up to Provo/SLC a few times per year!! If by chance you come down this way, I will gladly buy rounds at the Bit n' Spur or you welcome to some beer at my home.

Good job!

Rob

Yeah, all four bolts were removed and patched. They were all kinda manky btw, even the ones holding the chair.
