Who's line is it?
Re: Who's line is it?
especially when it is a 2-1/2 minute walk-off to climber's left... I think (f)Art just wanted some practice descending multipitch routes
Re: Who's line is it?
That's why summits the world over are littered with the bones of hapless climbers. Nobody survived their first send until that fateful day in 1992 when Porter accidentally carried his bolt kit to the top of Tower Rock via Caver's.

Developers: the following clause will be added to the next edition
Of the rrg rap bolters manual.
New mandate: climbers who really care about their beloved rrg need to always carry trad gear. Per larry day, please place as much gear on bolted routes as possible and mark the offending bolts for removal. However, it does appear that certain people on the COBS board (commission on bolting sacrilege) have determined by tarot cards and divining rods that a route with less than thirty percent natural pro will not be held to the highest ethical standard of "leave no trace", and can be smugly and virtuously bolted fully with no bad karma points awarded. This thirty percent rule only applies to face climbs, unless you are caribe who openly endorses clipping bolts next to cracks as good practice for beginners...all ironclad rules set forth herein are subject to management over ride as public sentiment dictates.

Kipp has gone from the pot-stirring to hornet nest-stirring to bald-faced blasphemy. At some point we will be releasing Barrabas and crucifying the pig.
Re: Who's line is it?
sounds more rigorous than the accounting standards board, but with more oversight.
training is for people who care, i have a job.
Re: Who's line is it?
Admirably succinct, and of the highest ethical standards. I don't see how any reasonable person could object.pigsteak wrote:Developers: the following clause will be added to the next edition
