Lynn: "S" is for sling or or whatever

"Kwas" has gotta be a troll or maybe he is his own troll. Go figure.

WTF guys, its still a classic climb. Now if someone filled in the lovely crack, that would be a crime.

i am excited about the prospect of putting some sport lines up at fortress. that place is too stuffy with all those stinky tradders.

bedtime being filled up with concrete and then bolted would be a better climb than Eureka ever could be.

we could make fortress the beginners sport crag that would draw traffic away from the advanced crags like left flank and military.

merrick has the right idea
then fortress could become the complete beginners area with easy trad and easy sport
would could even put in an escalator up to the base of the crag and maybe even a concession stand to raise some funds.

now we are talking. let's make some real money! maybe we can enchain all the cliffs in the gorge with a giant via ferrata and sell the first ascent of the longest via ferrata to some sucker.

wow, you got me guys! i was really had there for a second, but my friend Horatio Felacio just called me from his cell phone and said it wasn't true. say, aren't posts that are not true supposed to be contained to the "suck forum". hmmm....i wonder why this one isn't on there. that's really weird, that a moderator would delete the same kind of post by the cool guy Horatio Felacio and not this one. strange.

John, I'm totally game. Lets haul up plenty of extra concrete, too. If we heap it on high enough we might be able to create a replica of El Cap right in the good ol' RRG!

I know, as long as your hauling all that concrete, how about we lay down a slab at the base of American Crack and Calipso, etc. to stem the erosion. Then we can stamp it to look like real rock. Any sensitive archaelogical stuff would then be protected for future exploration. Or better yet, we could leave artifacts in the concrete for future generations to study......
