shaoleung Posted April 9, 2010 Posted April 9, 2010 It's about time we all figure out that the answer is bolt ladders on all climbs. It's really the only way to secure climbing areas for the future climbers of the world. Bolt ladders will open the cliffs to everyone! Those of us who want to use gear and "technical skill" can simply skip the bolts! There we go. Solved! PM accolades directly to me. Quote

Off_White Posted April 9, 2010 Posted April 9, 2010 What makes you think that matters? Nice modest proposal btw Quote
shaoleung Posted April 9, 2010 Author Posted April 9, 2010 Yeah... I suppose it lacked sophistication... may as well delete this thread entirely... Quote
tvashtarkatena Posted April 9, 2010 Posted April 9, 2010 The way I'm tracking, I'll need to aid 5.4 pretty soon, so I'm all for it. Quote
JosephH Posted April 9, 2010 Posted April 9, 2010 You'd really need to come up with a bolt ladder / via ferrata hybrid for every route to qualify this as really opening things up safely for future generations of climbers. And who knows, maybe they'll get the price of iPhone 6g controlled autobelay systems down low enough so that one of those could go on every route. Quote
tvashtarkatena Posted April 9, 2010 Posted April 9, 2010 Grigris, grid bolting, stick clips...it's gettin so you can't get hurt no matter how baked you are. Quote

billcoe Posted April 9, 2010 Posted April 9, 2010 It's inevitable that this will turn into another Beacon Rock argument thread... Quote

Off_White Posted April 10, 2010 Posted April 10, 2010 so much for freedom of speech for bolts/inf-bliss,ect..just lock it,ow Oh, as A Bertram Chandler wrote, "This is Liberty Hall, you can spit on the mat and call the cat a bastard." Feel free to hold forth, however this forum is the proper home for what even the OP concedes is a spray troll. Didn't belong in the Climbers Board, so I moved it here, where all can say any damn thing they want. The Climbers Board should be a little more like visiting your Grandmother's Parlour, and even in jest, bolt conversations require sawdust on the floor and a shot of whiskey. Quote
