>"If we were debating belay bolts I would be more inclined to agree, but we are not, mostly because the belays are already upgraded with the relatively recent interest in the climb as a free affair"
I think the belay bolts were replaced with aid climbing in mind....nothing to do with the free climbers..
After my recent trip up they wall I was blown away at the amount of bolts in the belays.....if any rebolting
does occur I would hope it would not be in the same vein as the anchors.
