Sport & Trad Closure at Torrent Falls

To the Climbing Community,
Due to continued and flagrant disrespect of the Torrent Falls Rules, climbing is now closed and will remain closed. This family regrets that so many climbers have shown such disrespect to the land and this family that we are forced to take this action.
The Via Ferrata will remain open.
Guests staying at the Torrent Cabins and Rooms will be the only climber's permitted to climb at Torrent.
To the individuals that have shown their respect, we are sorry. We have made some great friends and we hope you will continue to stop by and say hello.
Mark Meyer, Owner

Thanks, Mark. We support you in your decision. Hopefully your action will be a wake up call to us all. Sorry you had to be the guy to have to drop the hammer.

I've collected a ton of fond memories of climbing at Torrent. Thanks, Mark & Kathy, for letting me climb there for all of those years.

Thanks for closing down one of the best crags in the red( edit: this was supposed to be sarcastic, I justed wanted to be thankful like evryone else! ). I for one will make sure to eat at RRO or Miguels, and continue to support the climber friendly busineses. It was awfully convenient to wait until after hosting Rocktoberfest to close.
This is a major loss.
