ticks on a route suck, but not as much as bees. I say clean up both!

I guess this discussion answers the original question. "whatever happened to onsite climbing"..............................all the routes got ticked!

you will be forced to vote republican for the next three elections, and have Gov. Fletcher as your boss.

I already have Gov. Fletcher as a boss...dammit. But not for long the way he's going!

While reading this thread a few pages back it dawned on me that there might be a way to deal with defacing the rock with chalk. This is what I have been experimenting wtih: I mix Sacrete with my chalk and climb away!
There does seem to be a little trouble on high humidity days, and as soon as I can break my hand loose and get down from this route I will tell you about it.

I did my best to chalk up some rock this weekend but it just vanished on my hands. Funny, we had a HUGE climbing area full of 5.10 - 5.12 sport routes and lots of nice trad lines. If it'd been the Red we would've had to wait in line. Now if only there were a Miguel's in the Big South Fork area.
