Whether grade 29 climbs are dangerous is completely irrelevant to the insurance company, who are insuring for all cause morbidity and mortality. Look at your old Rock and Ice or Climbing or Heinz Zak's books or even read this forum and count how many of the modest number of climbers who did grade 29 sport 10 years ago are now dead or have been badly injured. Afaik none of them died while sport climbing, but their excess of poor outcomes from other causes makes them a huge insurance risk. Now compare that to the extremely low published mortality for weekend warriors climbing modest grade trad at the Gunks. Chalk and cheese. Ni
