Yes, I believe it was....in King Rat gully.And my fingers weren't that strong. I was pretty flat out just getting to the bolt and was pretty disappointed when I spied the bit of rotting tat that was hammered in with the carrot to keep it in there. To its credit I had to pinch it between 2 of my fingers and wiggle it a bit to get it out (unlike the snake flake bolt which put up a lot less of a fight) before leaping down into the arms of my belayer (A nice hungarian girl called Sonja. so it wasn't a total disaster).
