So that gives us one week to sort out some rusty bolts and old lower offs before the summer school holiday bolting ban comes into effect.

How long does it take to drill a hole with a modern 36v drill and SDS bit? 30 seconds ?

Surely less disruptive than a failed redpointers tantrum or noisy guided groups/ screaming kids.

Time for a renegotiation?

Does this include Malham Cove?

Because if so theres a report on UKC that seems to suggest a lot of climbers haven't given two damns about the ban...

In reply to Steve nevers:

I think the restrictions only in certain areas of the cove. Climbing continued normally in other parts.

Hi Steve, It is the whole of Malham.
