No way should bolts be added to Gollum. I did it years ago and the gear was adequate. I was well aware of the reputation when I started up it, so I was mentally prepared. As it was, the gear was much better than expected and a great climb. Read the guide and make your own choice - it's not a surprise! There are plenty of other great climbs at araps.
Take Five was a different story for me. I roped up and went to start and then decided not to. I won't go back either. I don't solo and certainly not grade 18. (The first section until bomber gear). My choice and I'm comfortable with it. Again, leave it as it is.
