Found:

3 new slings and rap rings at the top of Radcliffe decent trail tied around a tree...

Cut the slings; keep the rings.

No way, we untied and kept them (Brandy new looking)

As long as you got rid of them...

Naa, save 'em for bailage off your next ADK adventure.

what I (or someone) really needs to do (since we didn't have much daylight left or knife) is cut the rest of the sling nests we spied on the walk down from the Frogs head area. Kind of like it needs some weeding to be done.

oh, are you the so-and-so who keeps cutting the topmost maria rap anchor?

Why would you want to cut that one? Makes sense to get you back to the bolted route off the GT to the ground.

Right. I agree with you. That is one of the only sane rap lines in the gunks... it avoids routes, or at least avoids the commonly traveled routes.

I don't know why it keeps getting cut but it does.

Post it

That and the High E rap. I tend to head to those two raps from most spots in the Gunks. The missing anchor at the top of Maria has been a nuisance.

Been to the Gunks just one day this year and built one at Maria myself.

found some new bolts circa 2001 so i chopped em.....looked new too! so i kept em. will look for more on thursday morning. anyone wantto help?

eddie

Eddie if you found bolts that would mean that you would have had to have been climbing....and we ALL know that is impossible, don't we? Don't you have a pre-existing condition that prevents you from leaving the ground or something???

it's called Marriage.

Just ask D-Elvis...
