i'd STRONGLY oppose going up there to modify the rock

since that first time I've rapped off there scores of times and NEVER got ropes stuck again. Once you see which groove it is and what it does, it's obvious how to avoid the problem. if you do what the ACA description says, you'll be fine. I am happy to improve the ACA info if you have any suggestions.

M9: the anchor is as well positioned as possible. the top of Taipan offers very few spots for top-access anchors, this is the best option, and the bolts are in the right spot.
