YNP1, you got me there. Certainly there is no rock being created. But you must agree there is unlimited potential for new routes (grid bolting). There are 1,000's of miles of cliff line. Much of it not even seen by modern climbers. And it's safe (National Forest) from private (RRGCC) exposure/abuse. It's ours, Leave No Trace.

Clif, ah yes. Bolting, cutting Holly trees for photo Ops., the trampling of Native American arch sites. Total access control by the Forest Service. 'If we own it, They can't close it'.

We raised $7005 pre paypal fees, and about $6700 after. This combined with developer contributions will allow us to purchase over 1000 SS 5 piece bolts and 500 wave glue ins.

Thanks to those who supported the Vday fundraiser, it was a huge success!
