Arapiles needs more bolts 24-Oct-2004 At 7:07:46 PM bob

Or why don’t you just get better at tred climbing and spend moor time on the rock enjoying it, that climb is used as a test peace to parse a curse because it’s suck a good climb with a good range of styles and exposure and some what bit of fear factor (the traverse) I remember when I did it and bolting it would be a sad, sad day in my opinion

I don’t think it’s necessary fore us to go around bolting the **** out of every piece of rock we see especially the ones that have plenty of natural protection and have been climbed with out bolts fore years, any one can climb something with a bunch of bolts so how about people that want to climb it start on something a bit easer and build up to it like climbers have been doing fore years, and doesn’t any one remember what minimal impact means any moor??

If you cant handle the exposure go back to the Gym!

(no one has to agree it's just my opinion)
