Why so much bolt spray?


Rad

Recommended Posts

There are lots of other interesting and controversial topics out there. Why does this one uncork the spray hose like none other?

 

Perhaps there could be a separate forum for bolt spray.

 

That way those of us who enjoy reading TRs, swapping climbing stories, sharing info, meeting like-minded people, and generally transporting ourselves into the realm of climbing when our bodies are stuck in civilizaion won't have to wade through the annoying, predictable bolt spray.

 

Food for thought...

I'd guess that 90% of the bolt spray is not about bolts themselves but is about garbage bolted routes like rappell bolted routes in alpine or semi-alpine settings, (ie: mt.garfield, south early winter spire, condor buttress) bolted cracks, or otherwise lame routes. Or at least that is where the spray starts.

Granted a couple of folks detest bolts period.

Bolting arguments are as traditional sheep jokes and RuMR is always there. I recall RuMR igniting a bolt argument back in 1992; It was my first glimpse of the dark and dangerous world that sport climbers want to bring to our crags. Glad to see somethings never change. :lmao:

Because people love a pissing match, and/or love to think that their opinion is the right one. Or, they don't have anything better to do.
