You never did this route. I get the distinct impression that you are 100% full of shit. Ill just reply to your "hypothetical" route. Ground up is good. The local ethic is no bolts. If you want to shit on that by bolting, your a dick. Go to the czech, use chalk and cams while your at it. Or go chop the bolts off serpentine because you think it should be a trad route. Point is, your just being contrary to stir people up. You are a liar and I dont believe a god damn thing you say.
