Skunk Canyon Bolt Replacement Day
On September 17th, the Flatiron Climbing Council hosted a volunteer bolt replacement day in Skunk Canyon. FCC members teamed up with other volunteers from the Boulder Climbing Community (BCC) and the Action Committee for Eldorado (ACE), all armed with the latest technology in bolt removal. Every bolt in Skunk Canyon, with the exception of one route that hosts a giant eagle’s nest, was replaced. The majority of the new 1/2″ stainless hardware was installed in the original holes. With the addition of a new rappel anchor on The Achaean Pronouncement, a total of 60 bolts were installed. A huge thanks to the ASCA for providing the hardware. And thanks to OSMP for providing lunch and the opportunity to safely enjoy climbing in the Flatirons!
