godammit piggy...you are right.
tell you what, the beene cracks do deserve REAL classic status. this weekend looks like shite for climbing so here's the plan: you bring the hardware and we'll set em up right. since the areas around these lines have nothing to offer the masses as far as moderate sport, i'll scope out potential chossy 5.4 to 5.9- face climbs while you rap bolt the beeneling and WLOTB at Dunkan. after we're done, we can request that ray bump the grades up by at least 3 letters. we don't want anyone going out there and getting their ass handed to em on a 5.9+ cuz you know, those lines are hard, dammit.

hey while you guys are at, there are several other cracks you should bolt so i won't be afraid to climb them anymore. hell, let's just bolt all the old classic trad lines. we shouldn't be selfish! everyone should be able to climb these routes whether they have trad gear or not!

agreed..then the movement of the climb would be appreciated without traddies fumbling with gear.gripster wrote:hey while you guys are at, there are several other cracks you should bolt so i won't be afraid to climb them anymore. hell, let's just bolt all the old classic trad lines. we shouldn't be selfish! everyone should be able to climb these routes whether they have trad gear or not!

Dude! Why let clipping bolts get in the way of the pure movement of climbing. Just set up a permanent pulley system from the anchors so you can TR everything. Now that would be real climbing.
