Poll: Retrobolting Trad lines? 11-Jul-2014 At 8:37:18 AM trog
Message
Any context?

Like,
"Once I wandered under this route that I though might go at about gr34, and (from the ground) it looked like you could get one Jesus nut in at about 20 m. Anyway I marked it down as a trad project and thought I'd give it a go one day. I came back 10 years later, halfway on my mission to improve my climbing from grade 14 to 34 and some bastard's bolted it!"
Or
"I cleaned a stonking splitter, 50m of fingerlocks, with good but sparse gear and have been working it for the last month. But I just found out some stooge, who I showed the route to, nicked up during the week, bolted every metre out of it, climbed it and called it 'beardstrokercide'"

cos i reckon my answers will be just a little different...
