Congrats!
Did you guys climb Petered Out or the 5.7 variation on BRCM?

Petered Out - Dave delivered a stellar performance on all the pitches. I really enjoyed the first three pitches. We followed Jeremy's report to exit the OW to the right above the "cavern" where Dave ended P2 and took the narrow ridge up to the gumdrop.

Awesome, congrats John! I know you've been waiting a looong time to get this one, finally done. Dave, nice of you to do the repeat with John. I still think the first two pitches on Petered Out were fun, just tough and very physical but much more enjoyable than Chair Rocks. I'm sure you were glad to see the new bolts on the slab. Well done guys!

Congrats, John. Nice work, Dave! BRCM is a great peak, and a lot of fun.

Tell me more about these new bolts? Someone replaced the bolts on that face?

Wowsa! Nice work John.

Jeremy - The bolts are brand-spankin'-new courtesy of Jason Haas and the ASCA. I was sure glad to have them be replaced!
