Our boy Colin Haley posted up over on his blog: http://colinhaley.blogspot.com/. Has photos from when Garibotti chopped bolts, and then we he and Garibotti went back and did some more. And Colin has had some coversations with Lama.

 

Best line of the blog:

So this, apparently, is the much-anticipated courage and vision of gym climbers applying their skills to the mountains.

comparing cerro torre to garfield?

 

While I am not an expert on this whole problem in either torre or garfield, it seems the major problem with the cerro torre bolting issue is that the bolting is going on near cracks.

 

While there are a few places that natural gear could have gone into infinite bliss, this place is fairly devoid of natural protection.

not about owning the mountain but rather respecting the mountain, the sport, and the other members of the climbing culture.

 

I think that sport climbing does not have to exist on every rock face. There should be places where adventure rules. (even if most of us have no possibility of getting up it)
