I did Sentinel ridge yesterday, great fun.

at the start of the pitch where there is either a 15 or 17 option there is a new double bolt anchor and  even more strangely there is a u bolt a meter or two away. Why? Neither are neccessary or useful to the route and degrade its character in my view. Is there some reasonable justification that i am unaware of???
