Some decent rock they have abroad, don't they?! Strange to do it on trad gear to a lower-off! Still, good effort. jcm

It's not in the least bit strange to climb it on trad to a lower off. Thousands of routes are like that (e.g. in the US).

Where is this?

What is strange is to remove the bolts then to climb on entirely pre-placed gear! Is this really a 'cleaner style'?
