List the route and the # of bolts to add.
I say Wet Kiss needs 2x more.

Stop posting and climb!

Brad needs a "retro" bolt tattoo on his arm. Later he can add chains.

More retro

Styl'n.

hubba hubba

nice!
So we could paint the new bolts a light red.
That would give folks the option to clip or not to clip.

Retro style is style that is consciously derivative or imitative of trends, modes, fashions, or attitudes of the recent past.
The term retro has been in use since the 1970s to describe[1] on the one hand new artefacts that self-consciously refer to particular modes, motifs, techniques, and materials of the past.[2] But on the other hand, some people (incorrectly) use the term to categorise styles that have been created in the past.[3] Retro style refers to new things that display characteristics of the past. It is mostly the recent past that retro seeks to recapitulate, focusing on the products, fashions and artistic styles produced since the Industrial Revolution, of Modernity.[4] The word "retro" derives from the Latin prefix retro, meaning "backwards, or in past times"
In France, the word rétro, an abbreviation for rétrospectif [5] gained cultural currency with reevaluations of Charles de Gaulle and France’s role in World War II. The French mode rétro of the 1970s reappraised in film and novels the conduct of French civilians during the Nazi occupation. The term rétro was soon applied to nostalgic French fashions that recalled the same period.[6] Shortly thereafter it was introduced into English by the fashion and culture press, where it suggests a rather cynical revival of older but relatively recent fashions.[7] In Simulacra and Simulation, French theorist Jean Baudrillard describes "retro" as a demythologization of the past, distancing the present from the big ideas that drove the “modern” age.[8]
The concept of nostalgia is linked to retro, but the bittersweet desire for things, persons and situations of the past has an ironic stance in retro style. Retro shows nostalgia with a dose of cynicism and detachment.[9] It is said that the desire to capture something from the past and evoke nostalgia is fuelled by dissatisfaction with the present.[10]
“Retro” can be applied to several things and artefacts, for example forms of technological obsolescence (including, for instance, manual typewriters, cash registers, bulky hand-held cellphones, etc.) and also the resurrection of old computer games and the equipment on which they are played. But most commonly “retro” is used to describe objects and attitudes from the recent past that no longer seem “modern.” It suggests a fundamental shift in the way we relate to the past. Different from more traditional forms of revivalism, “retro” suggests a half ironic, half longing consideration of the recent past.; it has been called an “unsentimental nostalgia,” [11] recalling “modern” forms that are no longer current.

If retro is a return to the past then we should be restoring all the old climbs to their original condition.

yeah, but how do we glue the loose rock back on in a way that makes it break-off-able? ;)

Where the hell would you put more bolts on Wet Kiss? That is one of safer routes at the park.
-
preferably right between his eyes
-
I've always been under the impression that Lucky 13 could use at least ten more bolts.
-
lol

Better safe than sorry.
Okay Lucky 13 is on the list!
What's next? One of the Sister's routes? Say 3more.
I'd put POD on the list but the bolts are already close. But the last one....is a tad far....hmmm.
Then there are the DES routes. The new hangers could be pink. He likes pink.
Clink can you spare a few of your pink ones?
-
Bolt your traverse of the bathroom to make it safer. Pink with sage green stripes.
-
Check! Added to the list.
-
preferably right between his eyes
More hunter, than gatherer.
-
Don't over-evolve.
-
I have another place he can put his bolt.

Delete this thread. ::)

We can do better jokes than this!
As my 3 y/o nephew says "No Funny!"

Front page news with no funnies? Got laughs at my house. We are a little weird.
Brows furrow and smiles crinkle, at odds for sure. :ciappa: :ciappa: ::) >:D

F4. Do not delete. Have a beer and read a novel while keeping the kids from killing themselves.

I thought this was a forum for Pinnacles information...right?

this forum is for random nonsense. You belong right here....

Does that mean we have a consensus to add pink bolts to edge of sundown?

Hunter-Gatherer Fitness
By Yoda
Exercise Like a Hunter-Gatherer: A Prescription for Organic Physical Fitness
James H. O’Keefea, Robert Vogelb, Carl J. Laviec, Loren Cordaind
Abstract
A large proportion of the health woes beleaguering modern cultures are because of daily physical activity patterns that are profoundly different from those for which we are genetically adapted. The ancestral natural environment in which our current genome was forged via natural selection called for a large amount of daily energy expenditure on a variety of physical movements. Our genes that were selected for in this arduous and demanding natural milieu enabled our ancestors to survive and thrive, leading to a very vigorous lifestyle. This abrupt (by evolutionary time frames) change from a very physically demanding lifestyle in natural outdoor settings to an inactive indoor lifestyle is at the origin of many of the widespread chronic diseases that are endemic in our modern society. The logical answer is to replicate the native human activity pattern to the extent that this is achievable and practical. Recommendations for exercise mode, duration, intensity, and frequency are outlined with a focus on simulating the routine physical activities of our ancient hunter-gatherer ancestors whose genome we still largely share today. In a typical inactive person, this type of daily physical activity will optimize gene expression and help to confer the robust health that was enjoyed by hunter-gatherers in the wild.
