I don't have an issue with the really bad bolts (e.g. the one on Judgement Day) or even pegs being replaced by new bolts. They were in much better condition for the first ascentionist. I'm less happy with them being replaced with a ring, but a hanger? Well maybe. Personally, I think rings are dangerous as they can unclip. Having toproping or lowering rings would certainly seem to be pushing it too far. Why not just set up a top rope anchor out of gear. It hardly takes very long. Do you know what routes these have appeared on?
