When is a route a sport climb 17-Jan-2011 At 11:46:17 PM dmnz

so are you now defining a sport route as one with 'no risk'?


why are people so keen to trust someone else's bolts 'which are safe' when they don't even know who the bolter is, as opposed to placing the gear themselves and knowing pretty much how good the gear is or isn't? do people just like the illusion of 'oh someone else did it so it must be good?'
is this not a reflection on society today where no one is willing to stand up and be responsible, even for themselves?
