i wonder if google maps can pick up meth labs? may not be a bad option to put in an updated guide book edition...60% chance of meth lab

Gus, i think we are OK because satellites cant see into our RV.

Someone asked me about my secret crag once.... I smiled and asked him "Which one?"

Yeah, matrix wall is hype.... but I still attest that Infinity brings the ruckous. Everything is 5 star classic with heel hooks and knee bars at every bolt.

not to be outdone is matrix's sattelite cliff dolphin crag. absolutely sick. seriously dude, everybody thinks they're just gonna go walk around and find the next best thing. it's not the easy.....do your homework, or better yet, get connected. or even better, go look for all those rad boulder fields in the red that have yet to be discovered

Don't forget: Free ropes at Infinity every Saturday. Still can't figure out why this classic destination hasn't made the guide book ...

i understand finding crags and developing them in private and getting all first ascents and then going public, but whats your opinons on just keeping the crags to your self and never exposing them ever after development??

Well if the crag is on public land then there really isn't much the secret keepers can do if their secret gets out. If the secret cliffs are on the RRGCC property then I would think that since a lot of people donate money to that property then they may be somewhat entitled to climb on the new lines at some point.
