Agreed! This experience has alerted me to the fact that I had made the above assumption. It's up to the climber to assess the pro, and draw conclusions about whether it's safe or not, regardless of whether it's sport or trad, Forever Young or Auto-da-fear.
So once again, thanks for bolting the route Neil. I think it's a mighty fine route and I am glad you bolted it :) |
