If you manage to get an old purple 0.5 BD cam unstuck on pitch 2 of Snake Dike, please drop me a line as I am very interested ($) in getting this piece back, because of its sentimental value. Thanks.

Out of curiousity, where'd you lose it? where you start up on the dike?

Exactly, after the traverse and before the bolt that is just below the dike.

Normally I wouldn't post for stuck gear, but I borrowed this piece from a friend and also it is pretty old, so whoever finds it might not want to use it anyways.

I hope somebody cleans it, there's not really enough room there for 2 placements. It seems like there is often a piece of gear stuck there. last time I went up snake dike there was a stuck red tricam in that spot, i really didn't think it was ever coming out, I guess I was wrong. Good luck on getting it back though, if I hiked that far and found gear, i'd probably keep it, maybe if you offer a reward?

PS I left a #2 offset nut on pitch 6 of the south face of washington column if someone finds it, it was brand new and I'd really like it back :)

Snake Dike has got to be one of the best places around to score booty - both on route and at the base.
