"It was sometime between 1075 and 1980..."

> I got a problem. A lot of what I do and did I cannot prove. Or dont want to. But some funny times I have been there and if I didn't do it. I saw it. But sometimes I did it. One of my first posts here was a question about what happened to a set of Valley bolts I placed in the 70's. Somebody reply was that I placed lousy bolts.

> At least somebody saw them. The ascent is gone, evaporated. It went another 150 feet in my drunken memory, easy 5.10 I thought, into a large dihedral with a crack. 3 pitches I think, with the fourth waiting...

I remember your first post.

When Roger and I replaced bolts in that Arches Terrace area last summer, I believe he probably pulled and replaced your bolts from that FA. I remember he was telling me that where the route intersected the dihedral, there was not a 2-bolt anchor that he was expecting, from the belay circle shown in the Meyers/Reid topo.


Your route became "F" (Friday the 13th) in the Meyers/Reid guidebooks. I haven't been up the lower pitches of that, and I wasn't there the day Roger replaced the lower bolts, so I can't tell you much more.
