Dumb question not a troll!

In all seriousness, check out the Bachar-Yerian in Tuolumne Meadows in Yosemite. Definitely an all time example of establishing a new route ground up. |

Thanks for the read, Tony. At least something good came out of this. |

Looks like he's a boulderer and dipping his toe in the climbing world. |

Then rappel down and remove the bolts you don't need. If you don't use removable bolts (RB) then you could use my favorite: Fixe Triplex bolts. The Triplex are slide in, tighten, use. Then loosen and remove entire bolt. You can repeat this process until you reach the top of the Dawn Wall if you desired (it would be tedious to drill by hand).That's a good point. Don't forget, most climbers will drill a series of three holes for each bolt, that way you can pick the one that you like the best. Sometimes one hole will be stronger than another, so it's best to pick the one that looks the most secure. Eventually erosion will fill in the other holes you don't use, so it's all good. |

You could do that and remain a douche. Or easily patch the holes with glue and blow some dirt on the wet glue to hide the hole. That way you could get it done easily and cleanly. |

^^^ LOL |

I am indeed a boulderer. I have nothing against sport climbing, I just have never had the opportunity to do it besides in a gym on tr. |
|
yes!! |
|
Also I will not be the one bolting or doing any route development. I was just curious about how it's done and the cobra thread made me even more curious. |

Outlaw slack lining? Climbing has damaged more rock than slack lining. Just stand under Indian Creek classic, Incredible Hand Crack. It was a single color when I climbed it 15 years ago. The crack now sports two tones. The lighter stripe was created by bodies rubbing on the rock. |
|
That's your opinion and your entitled to it but you wolnt be intitled to slack if my mission is accomplished on a global scale! |

Troll on dug mustard. |

The threads over so might as well. |
