Website for Roadside area

Post by GStephens »

I put up a website for the Roadside area (www.gfnp.org) that has a few commonsense rules and regs about using the Preserve. For those that don't know, Roadside is located on land owned by the Graining Fork Nature Preserve, LLC. In turn, this LLC has two members - myself and John Haight (the proprietor of Cave Run Bike and Outdoor Center).

All in all things have gone well and I thank the climbing community for taking care of Roadside and not abusing it. Most folks have been very considerate about keeping the place clean and not trampling it down.

Thanks,
Grant Stephens[/b]

I like the history page. Cool stuff.

We are very fortunate that you purchased Roadside and protected climbing there. Thank you, and thanks also for having common sense rules. I think most if not all climbers can even be counted on to follow them!

Thank you for posting the info. The history page is great.

May we all be worthy to climb in your protected preserve.

Groups of more than 8 are prohibited? That will cut down on school groups.

Re: the history page
Had dinner Sat Night with the chair of the physics department at Idaho State University. He was telling me what a great guy and what a character Martin Hackworth is. I guess Martin still climbs when he is not snowboarding. There is a crag/wall in town in Pocatello.
