Been to Copper Cove Recently?

Post by jonny2vests » Sat Apr 20, 2013 9:22 pm

I went for a look today and lots of the bolts look kind of manky. I wasn't there to climb, just wanted to see the place. The topo is dated 2000, and being a Brit and therefore pretty familiar with the vagaries of fixed anchors by the sea, I'm not sure I could bring myself to lobbing on a 12 year old rusty sea bolt :-) So I was wondering if others here use them these days?

I climbed there once last summer and a fair bit in seasons prior. If I recall correctly, bolt conditions vary from route to route, and the area further left is perhaps better than the first wall you come to…

All that said, I've never taken a big lob at CC and probably wouldn't want to!
