The sight of him was unexpected. As our day wrapped up, I had an itch to bolt a line that had been on my mind for quite some time. I invited Per to join and we all headed up the route called After, to the big tree ledge. I knew that this route would be a high quality addition, as I had scouted it many times.
The four of us drilled, cleaned, installed bolts and had a fun time. Per had famously stated, “If anyone fell leading at Abraham Slabs they would be turned into bloody coleslaw.” We gave Per the first go at our new 45m pitch route on super sharp, high quality limestone. Bloody Coleslaw was a fun addition to the zone, and developing it was a good time!
