I think there were 4 climbers at the Wolgan on the weekend. I dont think there is any issue with overcrowding. Some replacement of the mankiest gear is very welcome and thanks for doing it. I have no problems using rings instead of carrots. A lot of metric bolts dont take PFH hangers which is a real pain in the butt when you are half way up a climb (Maquillage springs to mind).
Rings have been used before (eg at the rap station from the top of the Excalibur-Scimitar area) as well as chain and maillons etc in many other locations. A few more rap stations would improve what is sometimes a dicey walk to a tree (eg at the top of Mirrorman).
Wade wasnt anti bolts. (Just anti cragx).
