I know I know but he said "my friend said the crimps felt dry" I mean c'mon

Andre, sorry you're catching so much flak for asking. I think you have figured out by now the consensus is to not glue it back on.

He was specifically talking about the running creek and snow up top, he is obviously a troll trying to upset people about climbing when the rock is wet, if not he is an idiot and he needs to know that lol

So what,,you broke a hold..live with it

Not trolling. Running creeks and snow are common in the mountains, champ. Evidently the Clark County Schools did your english syntax and grammar skills no favor. I suppose that you need to know that too ;-)

Obviously I feel bad about this as that was such a cool feature. I just want to make things right and get it re-attached, cut me some slack.

You completely missed my point , nvm

You know in the guys' photo, the hold in question appears to still be in place, right? I guess he did say the follower was the one to break it though... hmm. Still thinking this is a troll.

Its definitely a troll

This is fantastic.

Posting just to post?

Pretty much.

I see the problem here.

Why are people feeding the troll.

more cookies. nom nom.

don't get your references, but the hold was taken care of today. Levitation is a fine route and we are sorry for the damage caused.

Most likely, you'll shit regardless. In fact, doctors say a healthy person has at least one to two bowel movements per day.

Fact.

"taken care of"? How? Glued a 5 lb. "fang" to the rock? (sandstone?).
Is this thread for real or just a troll?

Where to start, where to start. OK how about here, this really pisses me off!
You blow into town and immediately let your ego, arrogance and ignorance send you on an ill advised and late in the day failure on the super classic L29. What ever you do DO NOT go glue the fang back. If you want to do the right thing wait for the stone to dry and go retrieve the fang, take it into Desert Rock Sport, explain and beg for forgiveness. To claim and blame "chossiness" or to trust in your friends assessment of dry feeling crimps is assinine at best. Either talk to the locals about wet rock or go back to your local playground! The desert environment for all it's harshness is remarkably fragile.

Oh and please stay the hell away from any of my routes!

This is what climbing has become. Get used to it.

can anyone confirm this, or is it just Andre's word so far?
