This page has been set up to document details of routes that have been rebolted recently, such as when the work was carried out, who graciously gave up their time and energy to do these works and who helped chip in towards the cost of the new bolts, glue, drill bits etc.It will essentially mirror the information provided here: http://www.facebook.com/groups/330574013634318/
If you’ve recently rebolted something, please also record it by adding a comment below.
The people doing this work are giving up substantial amounts of the their time (and quite often money) so please contribute to them next time you see them at the crag (there’s also some donation boxes appearing at a few of the climbing walls) such that we can ensure climbing in HK remains safe and enjoyable for everyone.

4th bolt on evolution at monkey butress broke off n climber injured yesterday, in need of rebolt n checking of remaining protections.
Naughty Dragon, Tung Lung
Bolts 1-5 (from the ground up) replaced with Bolt Products Saltwater Series 100kN bolts. Hilti RE-500 resin. Original holes were drilled larger to 17mm and deeper for the resin bolts so no change in placement location.
The Lizard, Beacon Hill
Lower off and all bolt runners replaced with Bolt Products, marine grade stainless steel (316 ss) 6mm * 80mm resin bolts with Hilti RE 500 resin.
If anyone has any rebolting projects on the go and they need some help, let me know. Happy to chip in on the costs of the hardwear and spend some time at the crag.
Hi Stuart,
Alberto and I have a rebolting route plan for Eagle Crag. We already got help with gear from Francis . Happy to talk to you about our project if you want.
