I keep him on a leash at Chek, cause there is so many people there, and I can't just got grab him if he is being an a$% while I am leading or belaying. At the Grand Wall boulders, I ...

Grand Wall Boulderfields trashed by movieshoot.

I was at the Grand Wall today and was amongst many people who were outraged at the level of damage caused by the people shooting a movie near Cacaodemon.

A NYLOK TORQ-PATCH self-locking patch can be applied to your own hex nuts, or ready-to-install self-locking hex nuts can be supplied to meet your specifications.
