Bolting Ethics - Anchors	14-Dec-2007 At 12:51:25 PM	penguinator

Was sitting around at work just letting my mind wander and I came up with a question... I realize that fully (or even partially) bolting a previously trad climbed route is a nono, but what about installing bolted belays, on previously trad belays? I am not talking the whole shebang of two or three bolts, but just one to compliment and make a backup for the placed gear? Before I get flamed, NO I am not about to go out there with a drill and start defacing climbs, NO I am not even thinking about it. I am just wondering where the practice of bolting becomes ethically wrong.
