Probably been covered before, but I've been out of town for awhile, so here goes....
Anyone have any RECENT info on bolts (good or bad, what's been replaced), dowels, mank, etc. on Tangerine Trip?
Thanks.

All I have heard is that the post was in the wrong forum and should have been attached to the routes DB. :wink:
I'll help you there, but you will have to lug your own pigs up the wall.

Climbed it in May of this year. Everything has been replaced. The old rivets are gone. This was done in 2003. You can always check the ASCA site for this type of info...

fyi. There are still rivets as opposed to bolts with hangers on a few of the ladders on the upper pitches so you will want to bring rivet hangers but they're new and fat! I was probably clipping every third or fourth and I'm pretty conservative when it comes to that type of thing.

So i guess the wingnuts are no longer required gear on this climb?
