Hominy Hole and Pocket Wall

Does anyone remember the years these walls were closed? I'm thinking 2000 for Hominy Hole and 2002 for Pocket?

Pocket wall must have been closed at the latest 2001...cause I never got to climb there when I started climbing

I know Caspian, we're both late bloomers!

pocket wall was closed for a long time before 2002 when the bolts got pulled.

I know I climbed at Pocket in 2000 and maybe 2001 (?). I can't remember. Someone's gotta know dates. Anyone?

Hominy was closed early spring (jan) 2000. Pocket wall was before that. 1997/98?

I've got photos of PW in 1999, so it was still open then.

The last time I climbed there was in March of 97. Seems to me like it was around a year later, but I'm really not sure.

Hmm...maybe I was climbing there when it was closed then? I was there with a bunch of Lexington folks and we weren't sneaking in there or anything.

Thanks, Hugh.
