Trad is the best. Yeah,....it drains every green back out of your bank to do it. But it expands your ability to climb beyond just bolted lines. Plus it makes you think more than just clip'n and go'n. Do you really trust your placements? he he he

I have a climbing ethics question that I was wondering how people would respond to. Lets say that you were out climbing a trad line and while you were on it you saw this shallow crack to the left. It looks like climbable variation of what you are on and you could get a first assent if you tried. But...

As much fun as sport is, it takes more balls to fall on a placement that you put in than a bolt. But thats just how this Trad Troll sees it.

Hey there. I have read a few things on Big South Fork and the possibility of climbs there. I was just wondering if there is a guide book out for it now.

The top is broken and there is an old Red Chili sticker on it as well. If someone finds it at Miguel's or at a crag, then let me know. I...
