sik, the thing you have to remember is that unlike the person who bolted checkmate, most people don't bolt raging piles of shit on purpose.

I have my draws on it. I was told that no one has sent the route yet. Be careful going to the 3rd bolt after the lip (3rd biner). The rock quality goes way down for about 5 ft. There are only 3 crimps left to get through that section and I think they are going to blow. If you like roofs, you will like this route for sure.

If you leave your draws hanging on a wall aren't they going to degrade rapidly from exposure to UV and cold? Plastic gets brittle after being frozen and thawed repeatedly and nylon is plastic.

There are draws on routes at the motherlode that have been there for years, and that were usually old draws to begin with. With the exception of a biner breaking here and there, they are still holding falls nearly every week.
