Why aren't these great problems on the online guide

Post by hoss »

Surfing through the online guide I noticed that while it lists several boulder problems (friction slab, dreams ect.), some really good problems/areas (skybridge & junkyard) are neglected. Anyone know why? Skybridge is probably the best area to boulder in the red and has some super classics (Pearl, Double Helix, Detox) they should be listed so people can enjoy them!

no, sandy, god does not hate boulderers. the holy spirit merely thinks that they are lower forms of life and do not deserve to reach the heights of other climbers.

well, Hoss, it's kind of a dumb question given the FS restrictions on publishing boulder problems. Glad I could be of service, though. I aim to please.

Actually, that is why it seems like a good question. What is the difference between the boulder problems in the online guidebook and the problems mentioned by hoss?

I just didn't put them in there. No reasons. Maybe I'll do it if I get some time.

so you will publish them even with the whole FS thing, so then it isn't a dumb question at all, well except for the fact that there is no bouldering in the red...
excellent point mia....you are correct. ~ Pigsteak

Yea, remember when I first created the online guide and I got a bunch of shit for publishing "illegal" routes? Everyone said how I was going to ruin climbing, blah, blah blah...

So far I haven't seen my illegal route publishing do anything to ruin climbing in the Red and the Forest Service hasn't knocked on my door. It was just something for people to bitch about for a month. Now everyone has forgotten all about it. Until now at least because I just reminded everyone. So I expect to get shit for it all over again. Bring it.
