Bail gear on Peer Pressure
|
Picked up a bail draw off Peer Pressure on Monday. If it's yours, describe it to me and I'll try to get it back to you. |

Hoping it's still ours from Saturday! Older blue BD draw, hooked nose and wire gate on one side, 3rd from the top I believe. My friend was TR'ing it to clean, couldn't get it on the way up and... forgot on the way down. |
|
Prob time for u to get some new draws anyway dan |
|
Ha ha, wasn't my draw, but I should try to get people to bail on my old gear as excuse for upgrading.. |
|
Didn't leave a bail draw but I put new steel biners on the anchors the other day. Though why bail on a whole draw, why not just a biner? |
|
Thanks for that Andrew, I noticed those. It wasn't a bailing situation, it was a forgetful climber on TR situation.. |

Oh good they are still there? I was concerned because the pins wouldn't fit because the links were just a bit too large. I got sick of getting to the top and having to deal with that locker always being locked and having that old d-Binet there. Figured I'd do my part and do some maintenance. And I was just talking about people bailing on draws in general, not directed at you Dan. though I did try to clean peer pressure while lowering, and it sucks,get the big swing into the trees. |

I've seen multiple people slam the trees and then back into the rock. you can easily wrecking ball someone walking at the bottom too. |
