Does anyone know what has happened to the fixed hangers on this route on Big Rock. The hangers have been taken and the second stud has been tapped down flush with the rock. Pretty crap effort to remove a climb because the ring at the bottom is still there and the 2 higher studs are still fine. I will be getting back out soon to rectify this, just wanted to know if anyone had anymore info.

Pretty lame effort by someone. Weren't there a few missing hangers at Mt Alex as well?

I noticed this too but I thought the route name was different - http://www.chockstone.org/Forum/Forum.asp?Action=DisplayTopic&ForumID=11&MessageID=5&PagePos=0&Sort=&Replies=166&MsgPagePos=160

Bit of a bugger really, it's a nice route.

Nah it is definently From the Ritz to the Rubble. Good climb, and actually well protected if you are at the grade, unlike a lot of Youies routes.
