Padlocked bolts – Buffalo South Gorge lookout	31-Mar-2007 At 6:16:09 PM	ZERO
Message
I was working for Dave Chitty when he was "requested" to put the abseiling anchors in. The process was lengthy and expensive, the bolts had to be especially rated to meet PV standards. WE thought that it was reasonable that the bolts not be subject to abuse by non fee paying climbers. It also prevents his anchors from being used by others when he goes to use them. Dave is a good advocate for free access and generally keeps PV on their toes with regard to dodgy freeloading tour operators. He has helped in several rescues on Buffalo, so leave his anchors alone.
