The Eyrie, Mt Boyce retrobolted! Badly...	31-Dec-2016 At 11:42:13 AM	patto

Good job in putting your hand up on the issue. But surely you could have spoken to the community BEFORE bolting. Bolting past climbs is always a thorny issue. Leaving ALL poorly protected climbs unbolted is not always the best answer. But nor is bolting everything that has a bit of a run out or hard to place gear. How somebody could consider retrofitting an existing trad route without community of FFA consultation is beyond me. Furthermore, many of the arguments presented here could easily be applied to hundreds of classic trad routes and pretty soon we'd need to have everything bolted for "safety".
