Alum pot extra P hangers

We agree that all CNCC-installed anchors should usually be depicted on an associated topo.

There may be a few exceptions, e.g. Dr Bannisters Handbasin in Long Churn, where a CNCC anchor provides a handline belay (along with backup around the large boulder), but an entire topo just for that might be deemed 'excessive' and just a verbal mention in our accompanying route description is probably sufficient.

[...]
Agree entirely that a trivial pitch/slope doesn't need a topo if the rope length and suitable description (e.g. 2 resin anchors, 10m rope required) is provided.

The problem with doing a really good job is that it makes perfection seem more achievable and indeed unreasonably expected :P
 
Last time I was down there, we couldn't find anywhere for the highlighted deviation on the 40m rope. This leads to pretty bad rope rub near the top of the pitch.
I've got a feeling that the highlighted deviation may be a climbing nut in the opposite wall. Spotted something that looked like that at the weekend.
