New route @ Torrent

[Sunshine]

A wire brush is not needed on the new really and I mean really dirty new route that someone put up at Torrent. It sucks! Who bolted this piece of shit route? Someone needs to clean it route..... Wire brushes are usually only needed when the rock is covered with those lichen things that have roots. A nylon brush can't those things.

Hey, for routes with really big foot holds, you could strap a wooden brush to your feet, and one plastic brush in each hand! And strap one to your chest!

Name: It is going to be referred to as the new really and I mean really dirty new route that someone put up at Torrent. It sucks! Who bolted this piece of shit route? Someone needs to clean it route..... The only clean holds on the route are the ones that we ticked (on TR) to bolt it and then send it. So, what I have decided is to allow the end users (the climbers) the pleasure of cleaning this route. If they choose. What I mean by cleaning is to literally brush (large nylon) the entire route from side to side, top to bottom again and again. That is what we did with the other routes on the wall. If it is not cleaned as I mentioned, don't expect it to clean up with climber traffic. It won't. Routes on shadey walls don't. Compare this route to the others on the wall and you will have an example of before and after proper cleaning.

I think you (Sunshine) just doubled the printing costs of the new guide book right there (by giving the route such a long name). What's going to be the shorted name: isgtbrtatnraimrdnrtspuatiswbtposrsntcirtochotrarotwt(ot)tbiatsiswhiditateu(tc)tpoctrifcwimbcitlb(ln)terfststtbaaatiwwdwtorotwiiincaimdeitcuwctiwroswdctrttootwaywwhaeobaapc

Im surprised Mark would let someone put a route up if they said they were not going to clean it.

[Sunshine]

I don't think it goes, "Uh Mark? I thinkin about puttin in a new route at Tornt but I ain't gonna kleen it!"

I'll volunteer to clean it on friday morning if somebody will help me or show me how to do it.

J-Rock, I like it when you clean the routes! In fact, could you just clean the entire cliff first, it would make it easier on me to put a route up. Thanks buddy!
