Brusner fixed cam?

Post by josullivan » Sun Jul 06, 2008 7:17 pm

I seem to have fixed my #1 (red) cam on the 5.6 (Flake Off) at Brusner in Murrin. We managed to loosen it but didn't have time to really work at it. A case of beer to anyone who manages to get out it out before I buy a new one, meaning this week. PM me here.

I almost didn't post this here to avoid that exact comment :). I figure at this point it's just trash on the rock so someone might want to dislodge it.

My theory is it walked in, or my second who doesn't really climb helped the process. I don't think I am physically capable of wedging it that completely.

Joe, i collected a nice new WC Friend at the top of the pillar a few weeks ago! i figure that the second was going for a 'free' ascent or didn't want to stop and work on it, cause it wasn't stuck that bad. it took 2 mins or so, but came out w/ no damage to the friend... don't worry about it. these things happen! :wink:

i personally have never lost a cam. only a few nuts back in the day when i was going for an onsight, and didn't waste time fighting w/ them to come out. oh well, it's like i paid $12 to climb that route!! lol
