I have returned from the Trade Show where I was schlepping for the coalition and trying to solidify sponsor commitments. Since many of the athletes were present, I took the opportunity to meet a lot of them and thank them for coming. The are really nice and very excited about coming. While I did not hear word one about climbing at the Lode (I've finally realized that there's nothing there they won't hike), they were thrilled to get on new stuff and scope some of our property for even harder routes. They were also happy to help us pay for our property. Just want to let y'all know that we have some people coming who are happy to climb at the Red and help us pay for our property. YAY!
Jesus only knows that she tries too hard. She's only trying to keep the sky from falling.
Mucho thanks to Morgain & Bentley for their efforts at the OR show. I'm definitely looking forward to meeting the sponsored athletes and seeing them pulling down on some RRG stone.
