We replaced 3 bolts on Just Do-do It on 5/14/04 (the two protection bolts and one anchor bolt). Installed camo double-ring hanger on anchor bolts (got rid of that bright red webbing!), the other anchor bolt was a short 5-piece, so we replaced the rusty bolt core when changing hangers.

The protection bolts pulled fairly easily, even though they looked "good" for 1/4" bolts (no rust on the head and stainless SMC hangers). Everyone should be wary about pulling straight out on even "good looking" 1/4" bolts on other routes with similar bolts such as Pole Position in Church Bowl - if you have to weight the bolt, weight it in shear (down not out).

*What is "Route Beta"?
It's climber slang for information or tips on a route as in, "what's the beta on that route?" As a service to fellow climbers we ask SuperTopo guidebook users to post tips and updates to this website if they have relevant information to share after a climb.
