In reply to Jack_F: just go for it, nothing wrong with looking after yourself,,,too many anal pedantic climbers, just have fun and be safe, i say if you make the climb you pretty much led it,,, depends how caught up in the pedanticness of climbing you are. personally i think you should only claim a climb if you do it in your hiking boots, without chalk and using jammed knots for protection,,,,bllaaaaaaa,,,,bllaaaaaaaaa
