There are two problems with this mentality. One is that it totally discounts the history of the route. The other is that it classifies climbers into two extreme groups, whereas most of us are somewhere in between.
This is one of only a few 22's on gear I've managed to lead at Arapiles - about 15 years ago - and I was really glad the peg was there. It made the route feel safe enough without making the climb into a dogger's route. If the peg can be replaced without doing further damage to the rock my vote is for a replacement. |
