ReBolting the Mother Lode

Yeah, I was thinking an adopt-a-route campaign could generate some motivation. Don't know about tags at the base, but... post up here with routes and pledges. Check the guidebook bolt count and factor in about $6.50/bolt including everything (bit, glue, bolt, nozzle, etc.)... including 2 for the anchor... plus $10/permadraw if you want to go big.

I'm pony-up for the SSGIs for Hugh's route Take That Katie Brown.

Starting Donation thrown at team suck.

I like the route sponsorship idea.

This is great! SSGI's would be a huge improvement.

I also really like the idea of the route adoption. A nice way to feel personally connected to your donations.

Let me know when the gear is in, and I will bolt on each time I go out.

[dustonian]

sweet, thanks Andrew... hopefully mid-June-ish.

Totally happy to help. I'll start w/ donating. I don't have any bolting skills to date, but I can use a drill and am willing to learn. I can also belay--assuming someone may need a belay to get up on a route?

[climb2core]

I will take Stain. Let's figure out a way to formalize this process... Ray, can you make the magic happen?

[dustonian]

Between Ray and Blake we will get something better up soon... hopefully one of those computer geekwizards will be willing. In the meantime, I will post a caveman technology list up at the end of the day with routes, sponsors, and $.

Thanks!!

Ok, I just tossed in $200.00--let's see everyone else put their money where their mouths are!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We should be able to get $4000.00 by the end of next week.
