=======================
Beacon Rock Update - 10/16/05
=======================


SE Corner Tree:

Slings and rap rings were removed today.

SE Corner P2 Anchor: Slings and rings were also removed from this anchor. This anchor on the first pass just had the hangers replaced. It will be redone shortly to bring the two hangers into closer proximity. How many of you actually do this rap or see folks doing it?

Grey Sling Swap Out: The gray slings on SE Corner and the main SE descent raps were swapped out for black webbing so they are not mistaken for 'weathered' slings by beginners.

General Issues

SE Corner P2 Slab Cam Removed: For those of you that hug the dihedral, the mangled cam is now gone. It came out fairly reasonably by manipulating all four cam tips at the same time with fingers.
