Wow what weird ethics you people have down there ....

I just did a route up here that similarly probably hasn't seen an ascent in quite a while..
Managed to 'fudge' (whatever that actually means) gear in on abseil, head point it and finally lead it placing the gear.
I wrote to the FA explaining that on modern gear the bolts are not needed and whether he would mind them being removed. Have since decided they can probably be left but the route should not be retrobolted because it's been retro-tradded... It's now a classic test piece!
You's sure do things different down there ...
