Chocolate Factory - what's the deal?

It's in the online guide, but evidently there are a bunch more routes that haven't been added. Given all the attention it got when the Petzl folks were here, it's not like its a super-sekrit, Prince Xenu hangout crag. So what's the deal?

(Mods: If this topic is verboten, let me know and I'll edit this into a thread on Hasenpfeffer)

From wikipedia

Chocolate Factory is an album by R. Kelly released in 2003 (see 2003 in music).

Released after the singer had gone through a year of controversy for a now-infamous videotape alleged to show Kelly and an underage girl having sex, the album proved to be a success for Kelly especially after the release of his single, "Ignition (Remix)", which peaked at #2 on the Billboard Hot 100, and became his biggest hit in years. Other hits include "Snake" featuring Big Tigger and the 1970s-inspired "stepper's anthem", "Step in the Name of Love". The album peaked at #1 on the Billboard Top 200 and has since gone on to sell over 3 million copies in America alone.

All songs were written, produced, and arranged by R. Kelly himself. Track 17 was written by R. Kelly and Fat Joe.

I haven't been there yet. That's the deal. Will get there soon to get a better description and photos of the place.

Don't get too close to the hornets nest.

and by too close do you mean a mile. That thing is bigger than my house.

I was there last weekend, it is a great crag. I thought it was a bee's nest but it is definately bigger than my house.

for the life of me i couldn't figure out what that was! it's white now - but apparently in the summer it was black with the number of bees/hornets/flying-stingy things. first i thought it was a mineral deposit - then i thought maybe it was a fungus. it sure is interesting looking. from far away that is!

you might want to add a note in the guidebook that people who are allergic to stings should bring their epi-pen.

You should see it in the late summer. You will hear it before you see it.
