At my gym they have a bunch of threaed holes in a grid pattern in the rock so they can just put bolts wherever they need them. Seems that if we had similar threaded grids outside, people could put up and take down their own bolts on their climbs. I think this would make everyone happy!

catbirdseat, I tried the search button, but most of the posts were about mountaineering instead of climbing. I checked rc.com, but it was all about lawyers. Maybe you have the wrong address? Went outside once, but most of the routes were pretty low angle. I think I like harder climbing more than climbing outside.

I just stared climbing 4 months ago and I am totally addicted. I like both types of climbing eqaully (boulder and routes), but some routes/problems are a lot better than others. Right now my favorite problem is a green V2 at my gym. It has an awesome undercling dyno that I finally stuck. My friend onisted the red V3 , and he couldn't onsite this problem, so it is actually probably at least V2+. My favorite route that I have climbed so far is the red/black 5.8 on the tallest section of the wall. I took a short rest at the crux roof, but otherwise sent it clean. I still cant figure out if it is best to skip the small jib below the roof (any Beta?). So what are yours?
