The route is actually bolted as well as possible I think. There's just no way to let go and clip for most of it, you're just pinching and laybacking the arete with very, very small feet. I agree with Phil on this, I'm not really into risking bodily injury on a sport route. I guess I didn't think that I would deck if I blew the clip, just come really close. On this particular route, you would be stick clipping from the pillar, so the clip is thirty feet off the ground. I guess I just had to decide whether to simply toprope the route, which is fine, or figure out a way to lead it that was acceptably safe. Obviously my judgement on the safety turned out to be incorrect, but I still think this is a potentially safe lead if done with double ropes.
