Gday Bill, the chains on Alis were replaced after the Monks and Lockwoods effort.
Matheson was responsible for replacing some bolts that were poorly placed M&L.
I was the most recent refurbisher of the chains, and due to the popularity of this particular path to the top it has probably been polished by the huge amount of traffic since you last managed an inspection.
My wish to repair the sorry condition of these chains was due to finding a French family belaying directly off the chains, Mum Dad and the kids all hanginging of a belay that had some links of chain with less than a millimeter of rusty mild steel left in them !
as for the loss of history, I have the remnants of what is left of the chain if you would like to hang them up in your museum as a display of the type of crap that some less experienced climbers like to call fixed gear. |
