I wonder what Chockstone would have said if the question 'OK to bolt this belay?' had been posted to the forum before bolting. I reckon there'd be a lot fewer 'Who gives a rat's ass?' posts in that thread!! I'm not advocating asking this forum before doing any bolting, of course. Separately, I wonder what Chockstone would have said if the exact same bolts were discovered (thus, providing the exact same benefits), but someone other than Simon had placed them there. |
