In reply to Arms Cliff:
> (In reply to Mick Ryan - Senior Editor - UKC) Are there any bolts left in the Buttermilk besides the ab ones on some of the big boulders? I thought the chopped bolts on Transporter room were the only ones placed on a route, and that their removal drew the proverbial line in the sand?
There are bolts on routes in the Buttermilk Country, sport routes, mixed routes and non-bolted trad routes. There is some great cragging there.
I doubt any have been placed recently.
As I recall the Transport Room bolts were placed by Dale Bard for his partner at the time Bobbi Bensman. Tommy Hebert stripped them, then Dale soloed the line. Tommy at the time was working on what is now Ambrosia on a top rope.
