So I think it's pitch 9 and pitch 10 were missing bolt hangers when we climbed it, anybody know what's up with that, and does anybody want to put some new hangers on?

Also we saw a rope that was fixed to the right of epinephrine, for like 4 pitches or so, anybody know what that's for?

I think those are missing by design, but vegastradguy or Larry can comment on that. When we did it two years ago there were fixed ropes just to the right all the way to the top. Always wondered what was being worked on over there myself...

there was someone on the fixed ropes when I did epi in november - he was cleaning tons of loose rock off what I presume is a new route. Damned loud...
