I still have yet to hear of anybody doing Gerughty's "original" Dike Route...

I would love to do the original route, but I just can't tell which bolts are the ones I'm not supposed to clip.

Could somebody please paint the original placements Green and the added crap Red. Thanks...

I have no doubt that Somebody has climbed the Dike Route without
using the added bolts. It's been known (the bolt situation) for
so long. I wouldn't expect obligatory spray.
But yes, you could say it's a classic retrobolt, and one that
climbers have managed to live with. There's quite a bit of gray
in the world.
