Renaming/rebolting aid route/attracting a girl! 3-May-2007 At 11:18:16 PM chris

Yes, I bolt in national parks, too.
However, I do not spend hours of every day on an internet forum pouring scorn on everybody else who does the same thing!

My point was to point out the hippocrisy of many of your comments on this forum, macca.

Forgive me if my comment has been taken as a "personal dig" or "childish".... perhaps you fellows should have another read of your own rather effusive and bitter rants on this very website!!

Another very important point...
Macca, you have justified your actions by pointing out that the sensitive routes you have bolted involved a prominent climing identity (yes I know Garth, too), and one of the routes is "9a, seriously".

Are you saying that it's OK to bolt routes in a sensitive area, but only if it's super hard, or somebody very famous is involved? Seems kinda elitist.
