In reply to: In reply to: I think you should find out who is doing this before you start organizing a lynch mob. Right-O! How can you lynch some one if you don't know who to lynch! Screw it! Just pick some touron.
If you lynch enough people, innocent or not, the real culprit will get scared and stop chopping bolts. If you happen to lynch the right person, all the better, no more chopped bolts!
Now there's logic for ya!

In reply to: Sorry Nik, but you've got it WRONG on this one. The bolt chopping in question --Thin Air-- was purely a vigilante act. The community (those that gathered, at least) reluctantly agreed to "maintain the character" of local climbs. There was NO agreement to go and chop anything.
I'm sorry if I was misinformed. I believe I had read the story in either climbing or gripped magazine. In conjunction to this, I had been talking to a couple guides in New Hampshire. I just want to clarify that I'm talking about the two bolts on the traverse, which is easily protectable in a horizontal crack following the line. I also believe there were a number of bolts removed from an anchor on the line, which was also easily protectable.
Anyways, going back to the OP. Good luck trying to get everyone together to talk about this bolt-chopping.
Cheers,
Nik
