...when Bridwell and I did the second ascent of New Dimensions two years ago, I suggested using nuts instead of the ten pegs he had with him. But he wouldn't agree. After I'd led the first pitch, using two or three nuts for protection, he followed me and left them in! But times are changing: this year he doesn't even carry a hammer and questions people who do!
