Replacing draws at Sanctuary and Solarium

Post by **Andrew** » Mon May 05, 2008 11:29 am

The gear on Urban Voodoo has been hanging up there for a long time, but I don't think people climb it much. The biners are probably good, but the webbing probably needs replaced. I am not sure about the other routes, most don't have fixed gear or project draws, the anchors are probably the biggest concern.

Thanks, I'll try to check U.V. and other Solarium top anchors next week or two.

Thanks to the ideas and input of many, we've settled on a fixed draw that will be going up next weekend on Iniquity and Cell Block Six. We went with Power Draws instead of chains and sleeved them in tubular webbing with steele biners and 1/2" quicklinks. Josh and Kipp bought some too and I think this is going to be a test to see how they work for us. Three sizes: 6", 9", and 13".

Anyone interested in purchasing Power Draws at a discount can send me a PM.

Out of curiousity, what's the thought behind the tubular webbing over the Frost Draws?

So that it's still possible to grab the draw when you're too pumped to clip.
