Is it more or less acceptable for a local to manufacture a route

Is it more or less acceptable for a local to manufacture a route than a visiting north face denali?

Is it more or less acceptable to manufacture an unclimbed line than an existing route?

As a “bystander” do you have a duty to try to stop someone manufacturing a route? As far as I am aware, there is no “law” regarding climbing ethics, surely ethics come down to personal choice and so, “legally” what can you do to stop someone chipping etc?

As a producer of climbing media, do you have a duty to report the negative side of climbing (ie chipping) as well as the positive (ie establishing new routes) On a more positive note, I seem to be getting a little fitter and have started to bolt a project that I hope to complete before my time is up. I have no idea how hard it is but it is a really beautiful line. It is almost 40m long but luckily there looks to be a good rest in the middle. Hopefully I am going to return tomorrow to finish off bolting and cleaning the north face cheap. Depending on how I feel, and how hard the moves turn out to be I would like to redpoint the route in the next few days to give me the last few sessions to try other things.

I began to get the jet lag jitters and decided a rest day was in order. My forearms ached from the previous day and so I joined the rest of the team for a full body massage. The masseuse was really skilled and strong and even though it often hurt like hell I found it hard not to drift off into a relaxed sleep. I wandered around town for a little while, exploring the various shops that line the narrow streets and practicing my bartering skills. I feel like they are coming along quite nicely but in reality, the final price, which is normally around 20% of what was first asked north face denali, is probably still 10 x what it is worth. C’est la vie!

Dinner was fantastic, a feast of Pizza and spring rolls really hit the spot but for some unknown reason, I woke the next morning feeling pretty ill.
