I wonder why he put a bolt there, when there's so much gear about? I guess both of us went off route by 50cm onto that ledge, lured by the shiny-ness of that ring bolt. The ledge provides a reasonable rest. There's a bunch of chalk near the bolt, and I'd be surprised if most other parties don't do the same thing.
It doesn't really matter. It's just a shame that it's on a *** moderate route, for the sake of a * hard route that probably doesn't see much traffic, and doesn't seem to need the bolt there anyway. |
