don't remove the bolts

I'll clean it up. Just because it doesn't conform to your idea of a great climb doesn't mean you should remove bolts. Otherwise many of the routes that others put up could be taken down.

I don't know the route but I would agree with Pete. The forgotten wall was cleaned up and it is great.
Clean it up and leave the bolts.

We didn't find it THAT dirty. Just scary. I didn't really like the sharp edges right by the first draw. Once the second bolt was clipped all is good. I think the grade is probably more like 11b.

So what's the final word? Is the route going to stay or is it to be removed??
