I climbed The Stalk at Plum Buttress in Chee Dale this afternoon and the fixed tat you ab from is in a dodgy state. I’m a bit of a wuss at abseiling at the moment but it is pretty crap- the sling I thought was the best bit turned out to be frayed to near-uselessness on inspection behind the block.

Anyway, I left a nice new sling and a DMM Phantom on there (plus another decent sling on a block in the break at the top of the route as I couldn’t retrieve this on abseil...) and I’m more than happy for anyone who replaces the tat collection with something more permanent to keep it all. It’s a good route and would make a nice evening for someone Peak-based with a few metres of static to spare.

Yeah - climbed here a few weeks back and thought the same. Some of the in-situ tat is the worst I've ever seen.  It's in the back of my mind to return and when I do I'll defo take some new tat and a knife to clean things up. Same goes for the ab tat on the top.
