Sculptor Loose @ Muir!

Post by **Buster** » Mon Jun 11, 2007 12:09 pm

Tuesday @ The Lode one of the young kids was saying that while he was climbing at Muir Valley he saw some old dad hanging near the anchor of one of the new moderates. The old boy was hacking and chipping at the clipping hold and at the same time declaring that since it was the jug used to clip the anchor it should be bigger. I wonder if Rick Weber is aware that some retarded and shabby chipper is loose on his land. I suspect that the lord of the manor wouldn't condone any such behavior and if caught, the offending sculptor would be shown door (so to speak) and asked to never return. Any thoughts?

If it was a new route is there any chance there was loose rock that was potentially going to hurt someone.
3rd party hear say has been known to be misinterpreded.

well shouldn't it be bigger. i mean it's the end of the route and won't make it any easier.

I've wished for R and L labels. But that maybe pushing it.

If there was a reason to, like kirker said, such as possible rock fall, then sure. Other than that just leave it. Esp in places like Muir or Torrent.
