Just got an email back on the bolt question (direct quote).


-------as far as the great slab route (on washington column) in yosemite-----I did not know the bolts were bad------they are welcome to replace them-----

I'll see what his views on the belays are. As you can see from his style of communicating, he's a two finger typist and doesn't go into much detail.If I want anything in detail, I call him.

I swore that I would keep this one bumped, so I am going to keep doing it like a dog.

Shoot, I would just like to meet him.

Here you have it on the anchor bolts. Another direct quote.

I am surprised there is still interest in the ole slab route in yosemite------he is welcome to replace the anchor bolts if he deems it necessary---


Typical of Layton's modesty.

Just get your ass up (or down) there and say hello. It's not that difficult. I'm sure he would enjoy the stories you have (and you have many) and could share a few of his own.

Peace.

Bump for Layton before I exit the door to JT. Freaking SoCal traffic sucks!

Layton looks like Clint Eastwood in that photo. Always thought Clint would have been perfect as the star of the Layton Kor story.

I'd take you up on that Piton Ron but I just bought a couple of those signed pictures of Layton's.

Hey Base! You are slackin' here! Sheesh! Looking for your dog?

I've got $50 headed for Layton. If someone will match it in 10 minutes, I'll double it.
