βeta: Wiley Coyote2 is looking at the wrong route or maybe needs glasses. Bornville is generously bolted lower down which makes sense as that's where the harder climbing is and where the ground is closer. Higher up the bolts are more spaced but well-placed ensuring that clipping is never the crux. An excellent option for anyone pushing themselves at this grade, or indeed youngsters with some growing still to do.

βeta: Very peculiar bolting. Crux lower section is bolted normally, perhaps even a little sparsely, while the juggy, easy top section has bolts every two feet (closer together than Kendal Wall just down the road)
