ok Walleye, now, just where is "Jungle Train"
you've got my interest up!

ok, Wawona Tunnel area... Grant's probably been in the area and snagged any line that I could do... should have asked Rick Sylvester at the Reunion last year, or maybe he wrote it up?!

Clint,

Anyone know the current status of a new Don Reid book?
Seems like people have been talking about this for years but there is not movement other than topos going to him. If it's going to be a long time before it comes out perhaps we need to come up with an alternative?

Eric,

Bob and I were out there this past weekend, and Bob removed the belay bolts from Hot Wheels which were too close to Bit of OK. They were wedge stud bolts, so he cut them off at the surface with a dremel tool, punched the stud back into the hole, and patched them. So there should be no bolts visible from Bit of OK now - no distractions!

We also repeated all of Skyline (fun route!), starting from the short thin crack left of the original start. We also did a direct start to our route, to the right of the original Skyline start - on the knobby prow. (Well, sometimes the knobs are barely there!), and finished our route - the final pitch traverses back left on knobs and joins Skyline.
