Piton, finding out that you were trying to pick a fight with Bob D'Antonio is like finding out that the dude at the bar you just flipped off is an escapee from death row.
Piton, you go play with the other children now, and leave route building for people like Bob.

BobD, Piton--
You guys better simmer down or I'm gonna have to give ol' Floyd Honeysuckle a call....
Of course, it's ironic that "Floyd" actually made R&I's list of Beastmasters!

In reply to: The crack was not continuous so you would need bolts to protect sections of it. But, other sections were just beautiful and splitting, and could easily take good gear. #2s and #1s. But, it was still bolted.
bolts on a protectable crack... i'm not a fan.
bolt choppers anywhere... i'm not a fan.
they are there now, so live and let live.

I can tell how old you are because if you can't see the problem, you really need glasses. And some of that early onset alzheimers prevention drug.

Protectable features like this definitely need pants. And the lycra-on-cracks issue shows how the community has successfully employed shame and humiliation to solve serious environmental problems in the past.

I am currently developing a new climbing area about two hours from my place. All routes are going up from the ground up. I normally climb the line on gear, in some cases desperately, and then rap bolt the line on the way down.
These routes are mostly face climbs with pockets, but I have also placed bolts right nest to my bomber #2 Camelot placement or within inches of a #10 walnut placement.
At first, the idea was a little discerning, but I have to admit that those lines make much better sport climbs then trad lines.
In some cases, the area, rock, and local climbers lean toward sport routes even on perfectly protect able lines.
