I drove up this morning to remove the cam, but it was much deeper in the crack than when I left it. I'm guessing that someone had a go at removing it late yesterday afternoon and pushed it deeper. Yesterday I could touch all of the individual lobes with my fingers, but today I couldn't reach any part of the cam, even the stem. I was able to sling the trigger with wires, but I couldn't make any headway. I didn't use Mikl's method (thanks Mikl!). It is rather badly overcammed.

I'm off to the US for a few weeks. Anyone who wants to thrash about in an offwidth is welcome to have a go and claim the booty. I'm more concerned about the eyesore for future climbers than I am about getting my gear back. I'm embarrassed for making such a crummy placement- I guess I was overly excited to place my brand new #6.
