Absolutely do not kill that nest! Far more people are able to enjoy it being there vs. some ridiculously hard climb that only a few people in the world will ever be able to touch. If he didn't get stung into a pulp bolting that line he should be able to climb without a problem. I doubt itll ever be getting work on in the summer anyway

Not that I noticed but I could have missed it easily. I'll be back there this weekend and take a look that sounds cool

That wall is going to be a lot less pretty with a third line up the middle.

Sounds like you need to give up sport climbing.

it's a really beautiful and obvious (if futuristic) line. it will be cool to see if it goes.

Agree and agree. I hope the nest stays.
