Loose rock on Bulletheads East

Post by cganzert » Tue Jun 02, 2015 5:25 pm

I am likely not the first person to notice this, or maybe I am because unlike most climbers I am around 225lbs. When pulling onto the second pitch (10c with the mini roof) the 5 foot flake of granite sitting on the shelf at the start pulled back away from the main slab. From what I could deduce, it is fully loose and just leaning against the rock. I was able to more cautiously use it to get to the crack and it didnt pull away but if I really tried I think that I could have tipped it over, which would be pretty unfortunate for anybody on the 5.9 below. Not sure what if anything should be done but I figured it would be at least worth mentioning.
