I had a sinking suspicion that would be my gumby gang LOL. Your observations reveals the true sad state of the climbing scene in Columbus. I introduced them to this crazy new thing while climbing we do called "falling".

BTW, glad you are ok.

Thanks.

Yes, they seemed like nice people. But they didn't think much of your falling idea.

I didn't realize how many people would actually be at those walls on a spring weekend. My friend was able to climb everything he wanted without waiting, because he pulled the "it is just me, I'll be quick" card, while at the same time offering to set up topropes for people, or hang their draws. But there have been people there who had showed up in the morning, same time we did, and by the time we were leaving, around 4-4:30p.m., had only climbed ONE route.

Normally that crew is like locusts... the swarm in and take over the wall.

When did this happen? I was there on sunday but I bolted mid-day. No one was on Reliquary yet, just Tissue and gung ho.

it was around three or four before we bolted for the day.

were you the ohio crew (friends with Paul) that were on gung ho earlier?

The bottom of Reliquary is pretty dicey for someone who's at their limit. Needs an attentive belay for sure.

yup that was us, mr. savage.

good, just wanted to make sure it wasnt Paul's idiot Ohio friends that decked.

All of my ohio friends are idiots, as are all my michigan friends.

Yeah, being friends with Paul will do that, for sure.
