Re: Muir Valley - 2012 Fundraising and Awareness
It's fine to ask for donations, but I'm not surprised by the results, or lack thereof. To really make a dent, it'll take a major effort at fundraising in some way.

Re: Muir Valley - 2012 Fundraising and Awareness
The Beanfest was the original climbing party that helped generate the PBC. I can't find any current info on the PBC, so I guess it finally died after what I think was a 20+ year run. If something like this were attempted for MV, I'd recommend having both a fun section along the lines of the "Cl...

Jesus H. Christ... I suggest we use water boarding when they're caught. It's legal now...
Stainless steel glue-ins with internal compartments of poison gas so if they're cut off, the perpetrator is quickly and mercifully killed. That's the future of bolting.

Re: Ass hole of the week
Sorry about your trouble. Thanks for your efforts. There's not much hope for humanity... What is the procedure for glue-ins? I mean, there has to be a way to alert people that the glue is not set until a certain time has elapsed. Create a cardboard sign and hang it off the first bolt? What do you do...

Re: Muir Valley - 2012 Fundraising and Awareness
Correction- Reading the newspaper clipping, I can see that it was originally the Central Az. BC and I guess it became the PBC later. It began with a group of us just all showing up at the same time and competing with each other. It became an official comp with an entry fee, judges, prizes, etc. a fe...

Re: Muir Valley - 2012 Fundraising and Awareness
Comps are a great way to raise cash. I was at the first 3 Phoenix Bouldering Competitions in Phoenix, Az. From very humble beginnings in 1982, long before climbing was mainstream, it grew into a monster- drawing top talent, having huge prizes and a very large field of thousands of participants, and ...

Re: Daily Kos founder headed for rehab
Climb2core- don't you want to see the people who killed her brought to justice? This link is just one example of many cases in which the official story has been proven to be completely false by solid science. Since you actually lost someone close to you, I'd think that you'd be interested in getting...
