    Many thanks for taking the time to post some kind comments as it is muchly appreciated. Also many apologies to all the Gaelic speakers out there as having been put right on the correct pronunciation of Am Buachaille a few times, I believe Buachaille is pronounced Boo-kle! Being Bristol based I'm afraid my talent for Gaelic has never been my strongest point... :-) Happy Climbing! Dave

    Really nice to see climbers that are not hanging upside down on one finger. This sort of climbing really has very little to do with the cerebral ascetics who climb 9a+ with lots of bolts. Where you climb is at least as important as what you climb.

    • @chaosengine4597
      @chaosengine4597 4 года назад +4

      "Where you climb..." Exactly. And ethical climbing is to stop as soon as you see the first wildlife you disturb with their offspring. No matter if it's falcons, eagles or "just" seagulls.

    • @freesoul1825

      chaosengine huh? why? Like, yeah, don’t want to disturb the 10th to last nest of condors but... any all wildlife? You know everything is going to burn when the sun blows up in a few billion years?right? Like yeah don’t want to make the earth a shithole(I know we pretty much are) I mean ideally)) but everything’s just not that precious. Unreasonable standards like yours only result in utter disregard(no that’s not quite the extent we’re at)

      @Mike-oz4cv 4 года назад

      Two slings (the second is just there for redundancy) and maillons should be all that’s needed. I guess all the stuff accumulated over time with every rope team adding a new piece once the old ones looked dubious but still kept “just in case”.

    • @vashusan1984
      @vashusan1984 4 года назад

      @@Mike-oz4cv I think that is his point. It is just continuing to accumulate litter due to old slings not being safe, or presumed so. I see his point. Where I climb, the popular gear routes have the same problems at places. Trees/rocks littered with old gear.

      Gwyn Higgins Sure I see your point about the visual impact. Someone does really need to ascend the route and junk all the old ‘tat’ as I call it and reinstate a new abseil sling or two and new carabiner to keep it trad, there is no need for a bolt then. If I lived closer to it I would do that but I live 500 miles away.
