Wasatch Anchor Replacement Initiative
The SLCA, with support from the Petzl Foundation, has been replacing the bolts at the Division Wall in American Fork Canyon this summer. The SLCA has been hard at work putting together a Best Practices guide for bolt and anchor replacement in the Wasatch. These guidelines will ensure that the quality and techniques the SLCA employs for this work are at the highest standard possible. The Division Wall re-bolt effort has been the pilot project to put the mentorship and Best Practice guide into action. If you are interested in dedicating a solid amount of time into learning how to do this work, please contact us at julia@saltlakeclimbers.org. Stay tuned for future bad bolt and anchor replacement projects here in the Wasatch and how YOU can support this effort.
