Just drove by (June 24,2014) and the closed sign is gone, replaced by a yes we are open. Good news or vandalism?

Looks like a new website is in the works, which is promising...

Looks like a permit system and waivers will be required. I'd say best not to climb there until directives have been clarified by the owners.

I think they/the owners deserve a lot of credit for not only considering reopening but also for making the hard decision to close it in the first place, for all our benefit.

Clif I agree with ya. However the way they closed it was kinda lame. But they were justified in doing so given the abuse the land endured. Glad to see some movement. Anyone that opens private land to climbing is good in my book. (Whatever that's worth)

From what I have heard earlier this year, Grant got bought out.

That's what I heard too and from a pretty reliable source.
