A pair of climbing shoes was found at the gallery today (Sun, 6/24). Dropped off at Miguel's for safe keeping.

if your a pro climber... attempts don't start until your ready to send, working burns don't count as attempts, and then, one attempts counts as one session, no matter how many times you fall. For everyone else... every time you fall, take, weight the rope, start then touch the ground, etc.

Was it black coffee? If it had milk/cream in it the pH is probably closer to neutral than acidic....maybe...

There is a school in versailles, Northside Elementary...I think. It has a bouldering wall in the gym. Not a 30 footer but you might be able to contact them for more information. Hope this helps.

Some people have shift jobs, where they have to be there at a certain time and leave at a certain time. I was on the schedule to work the day of the meeting long before the PD's even got strippe...

If you can't inspect biners during your onsight attempt maybe you should change your priorities so that safety comes before sending. Going from the top of my mind... I was on a Super Best Friends on onsight and it is at the limit of climbing ability. The crux for me is pulling the roof where you (a...

Rick said it very nicely, but why not start with climber education and work on dispersing the crowds to new and/or closed areas first. Which I believe if done correctly will mostly fix these "major" issues. If that doesn't work then go to more extreme measures, like stripping all permadra...

Just goes to show that you don't need perma draws to have gumbys hurting themselves on rock climbs...
