If you get a chance to check out the new mag, there is a pretty good article about the red in it. Including some pics and quotes from some of the people here.

When I got to RQ last night I snagged one of three remaining copies. The other two were being read behind the desk. A glimmer of hope for our GPA aspirants was the reference to Miguel's as the "Camp 4 of the east". I was most interested in the writers take on access issues. After any of you read it, I would like to hear anyone's view on how this article potrays our beloved crag and the various access issues?

Also check out the editorial on "Pad People". I kinda felt that this relates to the singling out of rappellers also.

i really didn't think it gave much practical information, just some background. and focused on harder routes, but i didn't see much mention of the local ethics or what one can do to help the situation.
