Prowess at Bow Wall - where is the U bolt? 17-Sep-2014 At 10:09:20 AM SydneyBattler

A friend and I went to check out The Prowess last weekend at Bow Wall. We had decided to rap in because the access from the wave platform looked somewhat sketch. We followed the directions onto Oceanview Avenue and found the climb. However, when we started to look for the "ring and good thread in cave/fish-gutting area above the arete" (from Sydney Rockies) we couldnt find the ring.

I found what I thought was the thread but since there didnt appear to be any bolts around I was unsure if this was the right thread. I am sure we were in the right place because we walked around the corner and identified the route, but no metal to be found.

Has anyone done this route recently? Any hints where this phantom bolt is? I noticed it wasnt even on thecrag, wasupwithdat?
