Why? How f---ing out of touch are you? I assume that you're one of these sydney gym ______ who has only ever climbed bolted routes to loweroffs. Some of australia's best climbers chop bolts. Even though I'm not particularly good at climbing, I've chopped bolts. It was fun, I'll do it again.

There are more than enough fuching easy sport routes on mediocre rock in the Blue Mountains. Nobody needs any more of this shit, especially if you damage relations with the land managers in the process. If you find actual mega lines on good rock in a discreet setting, go for your life. Centenial Trev is none of the above!.
