Rick,

Thanks for your dedication! Went to Muir a couple of weeks ago and thought it was one of the best places to climb! Keep up the great work

Does anyone know if Practice Wall is open? I emailed Rick but did not get a response. I want to climb there this week and will check the routes if he wants me to.

thanks again to all who are sacrificing their time and climbing so that others can have the time to enjoy the lines.

one thing: would it be possible to come up with a list of what's open and what's not to post on the board here and at miguel's and rro? i've heard about a few times people have gotten confused with the inventory system. mostly it seems to be on the open climbs anyway (people clipping into the first bolt are apparently wearing the green tags off) but i figure it can't hurt..

I know that as of this last week a few routes that have been said to be open did not have green or yellow tags on the first bolt. I am not sure if they are falling off or what. A list would be great, but I know that is a lot of work. Thanks for all the hard work.

At the Sanctuary, the following are open:

I'm not sure about other walls. Will have to confirm with Rick.

I just went up Thrillbillies, Flashpoint, Go West, and Return to Balance. All of which are at Slab City (aka west wall) All have been torqued and have loctite. As for the other 4 sport routes there, I don't know for sure.
Oh man, he is messing that up. However, he is missing his left leg so that way would probably be harder for him. SCIN, just before spraying some beta for a climber doing a route the WRONG way.

Hey, when will the Sanctuary be open? Those lines look amazingly fun.
