That's a bolt protected traditional climb. In my mind "bolts only protection does not a sport climb make". The way I see it sport climbs aren't put up ground up. I know this isn't neccessarily the case with the climbing communitie's definition of sport climb but in my book if you bolt something ground up (bolt into submission, or sparsley) its a trad climb since it went in ground up. Flame away...

If you want to know more about trad routes with bolts, spend some quality time in Joshua Tree too...
