I've talked to goodguy and now that he has responded I will confess. It's mine, trad noob right here. Many thanks to goodguy and his friend who actually got it out.
Screw you guys. I'm going bowling.

Is that why you left your cam in the crack? Cause it was placed really really good...
Not a bitch.

I can see how that 2nd pitch would freak out a new lead climber. Kudos for getting on it.

We left it b/c it walked. I saw it being placed and it wasn't fully cammed. When I was seconding the pitch and go there it was.

The tick to cleaning stuck cams is build a mini anchor above it and hook in then go at it with 2 nut tools.

Sorry to derail this, but Ynot, is that quote from Richard Hatch of Survivor?

Or use a 45 foot ladder and a hammer drill. Not that that's ok or anything...

Left off his helmet one day. Rock fell off one of the Grunges. Not a pretty sight...............poor Pooh!
What I love about running is you can meditate while running. It's a peaceful place.
