all the bolts that were added for the free variation of glass menagerie |

Parker you beat me to it! |

Two first bolts on Centerfold at wall of the 90's at CCC |

Say what you want about National Socialism, Dude - at least it's an ethos. BTW, Yaak goes on a #2 and a blue offset. 10c, tops. Why pick one, bro? There's plenty o' choppin' to be had on the most popular summertime RR adventure - that someone decided to turn into a convenient little sport rappellin' day. At least they managed to clean up all the (formerly) natural anchors along the way - Leave No Trees (slung). FML. |

any & all bolts put in on rappel |

Definitely the bolt at the start of Double Cross. Just man up and do the runout to the crack! It's a route worth braving death for. |

It's a route worth braving death for.Not sure if sarcasm but I was there ~3 weeks ago. Someone beat you to it. For all the hubbub on here I expected the "runout" to be much more heinous. You want a sketchy start try The Flue (also in HVC, only a grade harder than DC). Or really any of the other hundreds of JTree routes that have a boulder problem start. I'd chop the bolt at the start of the second pitch of north chimney on castleton. It's old and manky and probably wouldn't hold a fall, but it makes some people think they can get away without a #5/#6. Accident waiting to happen. Then again climbing is dangerous so meh. It will self-chop eventually. |

All of the ones on this route, I hear the first ascentionist is a bolt hater, so I will help solve his inner conflict over whether to bolt or to chop! JK :) |

All the bolts on Centerfold |
|
The bolt that really pissed me off was the lone bolt @ the crux on Roadrunner |

Pink Flamingo's (Indian Creek) anchors. Those things need to be gone. |
|
None. Bolt the future. Without them I would rather be dead. |
|
I would get rid of all the bolts Ken Nichols placed
;) |
|
All but one bolt on the first five/six pitches of sour mash, black velvet canyon. |
|
#2: All bolted cracks in Owens, especially in the upper gorge. It's not even an approach! |
|
Obed. GM could lose a couple too... You skip them they're so close together. |

The FA team hates them, they are right beside bomber gear, they're purely there for convenience...Haha I thought this once I saw the title of the thread. I admittedly used the first bolt- to clip my helmet to so I could turn my head around in the wide. |
