Has anyone ever used a BD 6 Cam
|
just curious... if so, which route? |
|
I have. Just once. It was on Ragged Edges. |
|
Yes, Sport Wanker Extraordinaire in the Calico Hills, Las Vegas. |
|
Basically just once..The Classic, Granite Mountain, Prescott, AZ |
|
not to hijack but what about the #5? |
|
Yes. Go to Indian Creek and try some offwidths. Or Cashmere Crack in Little Cottonwood. |
|
#5 is nice on Owl Rock in Arches NP. #6 is still shiny and collecting dust in the gear closet. |
|
Primrose dihedral, moses |
|
I used one on Community Pillar in Red Rocks. I used one on Sheila in Pine Creek Canyon (Bishop area). I think I've used it a couple other times but can't remember specifics. |
|
I cant remember the route, but I used two #5's, one #4, and one #6 on some route in josh. |
|
I used a #6, but only once in self defense. |
|
My rope gun had to borrow one so we could do Great White Book when the line on South Crack was too long last year. |

|
Weird question. Kind of like "anybody ever buy Climbing shoes and actually use them". |
|
Yep many times at the Voo. Love that size!!!! |
|
Our climbing club has a communal #6 that's passed on every year as a volunteer award. My mentor received the honor last year (the cam's 2nd time out). Part of the deal is that the cam must be placed on a climb at the Gunks and photographic evidence must be provided to the club. |

|
All the time in the desert, and multiple times on a FA called Sidewinder in the Fisher Towers, including one section where you do very insecure climbing past a tipped out #6 while trying not to kick it out. |
|
many times, but hopefully years of counseling and thousands of dollars in co-pays and xanax will cure that problem.... |
|
what? that is like saying has the sun come up today! all the time "fat crack" foe life!!!!1 |
