Climb it an chop it or shut up. I'm so tired of so many people who just love to hear themselves talk on this forum.

You have to wonder how many bolts on free variations on El Cap have been placed hanging on the rope from the next anchor.
Don't know the answer myself

I am willing to bet a coke Gary, that if the situ dictates, you most assuredly will utilize those recently replaced anchors to get your ass off that mountain. But then again, I may be wrong.
I owe you a Coke. Hell, yeah, I'd use them. There's a cheater bolt on a route I climb frequently that I use. I wouldn't place it, though.
The point is, Chief, you need to reflect on the motives of others, too. Just as you can justify rapping in to place convenience anchors, perhaps the motives of others are not as black and white as you make it out to be.
Your online persona of self-righteous indignation reflects poorly on you. Sure, it makes great trolling, but we are a small community. Why have people think you're a jerk, when you are not?
And how in the hell did I get sucked into this thread? Crap!

Remember as far as ascents go (Team Canada etc.), the south face of HD is currently closed for peregrine nesting.

Makes for a great motivator when I am out climbing, a big ass group of folks come out of now where, invade the quiet sereneness of our climb and someone in the crowds recognizes me from online. They instantly gather all their gear and high tail it outta there as fast as they can.
Thus, I return to having the place all to myself. Works pretty well actually.
Got it! :-)

fuk it, I'll cough up with the notion that I'm looking at getting in there.
whatever I put up will be piss easy compared to the bad asses that have gone before. I'll hang off hooks to place my pro, if it even goes. I don't know that it will. But that's ok. if it was a known quantity, it's just not as fun.
I personally think lots of folks should be getting further away from the Valley floor. And why not try and preserve ground up approaches in Yosemite? Doesn't mean we got to do it everywhere.
Has the snow melted out up there yet? How bad are the bugs?
