Broken Hold to Dyno on Mid-life crisis

Post by **RValentine09** » Fri Apr 27, 2007 12:28 am

I was out at Muir Valley earlier this week and noticed the jug at the end of Mid-Life Crisis on the Indy Wall is broken right off. The move still goes but I was a little bummed b/c its just not the same anymore. Anyone know the story? I can only imagine whoever broke it was in for one scary surprise if it broke off while having to commit like that above the last bolt.

Does it drastically change the grade of the climb?

That big iron oxide fin will be missed for sure.

I could never get the dyno to that hold right, so I figured out a way to static up to the small ledges to the right of it. The grade doesn't change.
