I love smith!!! But I mostly climb in the Gorge I do think it is over bloted, but smith is an entirly difftrent animal Flagstone. Flagstone is a very small peice of rock, well off the road. There are getting to be so many routes squeezed in there that if it continues, the time will come where you can not climb the climb next to some one because it is too close. Smith is a large PARK it already lack the feel of "wilderness" and did by the time I was learning to climb. This a personal moral decision Rumor, not something I expect anyone else to agree with or folow suite. I am choosing this becuase I feel guilty and as though I am doing wrong when I climb his routes. For me that is a signal to stop. I have never had that feeling at Smith.If I did I would change my behavior.
he grid bolts, he has no vission, and no respect for the rock or other people. He is not all bad, he has done alot to improve flagstone, but the bolting by him is out of controle in my oppinion.
OK...fair enough...
Do you enjoy smith? Do you consider that overbolted? Again, just asking...
