Climbing ethics, values, styles etc can be debated and discussed, opinions are just that - rhetoric. What I am more concerned about is the physical damage to a natural rock face and how we can rectify the damage, damage being the permanent placement of man made objects in a natural rock face and resultant damage to the rock.

To the first ascentionist's - you mentioned that you won't be "rushing up there to remove the bolts"; last week I noticed that the bolts have not been removed. I thought a 3 month timeframe would suffice?

Can I please once again ask you to remove YOUR antiquated ironmongery from the previously mentioned rock?
