Remember the DUPED (Designed Ultimate Peel Escape Device)? Seems like it showed up in a late seventies cartoon or something...

Now that you mention it Kevin that might be Potter’s plan after his test drive on the Eiger.

If you use a small oxyacetylene torch ( maybe 35 pounds) you can clear the metal from all the trashed bolt holes and restore the holes using epoxy rock paste topped with straight rock. Near full restoration I would think.

Just imagine the uproar! Especially all but one of the bolts gone from the West Face! Sure would bring back the mystery all of a sudden. LOL
