On a recent run of the escapeways, the section boss notices that the brow of a high fall area has begun to deteriorate. On this particular day, the face boss asks the miner operator and helper to follow the escapeway out from the face and take down any loose top at the high fall area. After correcting this problem, the workers encounter another hazardous roof condition nearby. This involves deterioration of the immediate roof around the bolt heads as a result of moisture in the mine air.
