He's not doing the discussion any favours by his attitude. I more or less agree with most of his sentiments but have a huge urge to slap him around the ears with a wet fish.

>Do people really think the bungles should be consumerised? I disagree with the recent retrobolting, I've always seen it as an adventurous area and would like it to stay that way.

Mikl's done a huge amount of good with his bolting in general - all the rebolting around Sydney and all the irnmongery he's put in at Pierce's pass are sh!t loads of fun to clip, but the bungles are just different. The main reason to go there is to have yourself an adventure where you have to rely on your own skills. Even if the bolts were just for bailing, half the appeal is that the routes have a certain level of committment because retreat is not automatically easy.
