Inappropriate, noisy, disruptive, or obnoxious behavior will not be tolerated.Wall Sun: Unknown. Fuck, 'city folk.' I'd rape everyone of you in a deliverance style, pig squeal, ass rape if i could. Hell, that might generate money since the majority of you are worthless, cumguzzling wastes of tommy hillfuck jeans and beamers.
Bring your ass down here and just expect the world to be given to you, drop the annon moniker and make yourself known. I'll be glad to drag you through a mudpuddle and stomp a hole in your ass any day. ANY DAY cocksucker. And spikedemon. You ain't see riled up. This is a privately owned crag that the owner graciously allows people to register online and climb at during weekends.
If you are active in the community, you get to climb here. As far as I know, no one who is positive and has donated a lot of time to make climbing better in the red has been denied access. If you are from out of town and can't make it on weekends then you can complain once you have sent the other 2000 routes in the red.
The RRGCC does not own the crag and no money that goes to the RRGCC goes here. If you get to climb here, then yes, toss in a small donation.
If you don't like any of this, tough. People are allowed to do with their privately owned land whatever they want, including only inviting people they know. If you think this is unfair, try climbing at Roadside. We stayed at the torrent cabins this weekend (great choice considering all the rain).Many of the routes at torrent are in severe need of bolt replacement.Specifically,about five ten - i didn't check the bolts, but the chains looked in rough shape from the top of reanimatorReanimator - Anchors chains are not safe and the bolts are nearly there too (I put two quick links on there today in order to rappel safely). The rest of the bolts have severe levels of rust (little to none on the hangers, no spinners found).It's Alive - i didn't check the bolts, but the chains were completely rusted when viewing from the top of reanimator.Pocket pussy, Sex Show, seek the truth, sport for brains, Ode to poopie head, and stool sample - all the first/second bolts show high levels of rust on the bolts. I assume the anchors are in similar shape (I didn't climb these).I have made them aware of the state of these anchors directly through email, but I'd recommend staying away from these until you see some shiny new gear on them.Torrent is a really great place to climb, especially if you've graduated from camping to cabins (they're really nice, can't beat the approach either). That's good to know.
I've always found it hard to evaluate bolt rust.The first chain link on the left anchor is not just rusted, it's 50% worn through, so that one would be one to bump up the torrent priority list (fun route too). I think I would be interested in helping out too. I travel from Milwaukee for my rrg trips, so I've donated $$ in lieu of my time (trail days,etc). But gaining experience in a re-bolting effort sounds like a cool thing to do and learn about.
So please do contact me and hopefully we can work out some logistics. All rebolting efforts at Torrent are privately funded and do not benefit from donations to FGI/RRGCC etc. I've donated my time to replace bolts there because I want to, and as a 'RRG-Wide Volunteer' I would hope you're not trying to tell me how I should I should be volunteering my time. Torrent has been specifically left out of RRG rebolting events due to the nature of it's accessibility. I don't think asking those who are concerned with quality of the bolts there to help out is in any way wrong.
Based on reading the Rules Page on their site, sounds like they don't want climbing here at all. 10-6, what kind of time frame for climbing is that? Maybe in the winter that would be appropriate, but any other season, that's a pretty late start, and an extremely early end.
The rock better be world class to want to climb here with the threat of being locked in if youre running behind at the end of the day. I've never been, and again, strictly based on the way the rules page is written, I'll never want to. If it's free, then obviously they couldn't care less about my thoughts, but if they are running a business here, good luck to them. I hate the attitude that land ownership means the owner can do whatever they want with the land, without being subject to scrutiny from others. Thousands and thousands of people have a great deal of interest in the cliffs at Torrent and Roadside (etc.).
They are community resources with incredible value, created by the timeless forces of the natural world. And some guy / gal buys it at a given point in history and all of a sudden what they say is gospel?! If that's what you believe, then you're a boot-licking chump. Uncritical worship of ownership is not that far from straight up tyrannical rule. I feel like the first part of your comment answers the question in the second part.
As you so eloquently point out, I lack the financial means to purchase Torrent. In this period of unprecedented income and wealth inequality, so do most people. In your view, this means that we are 'weak ass bitches' who have never achieved anything. I don't share your view. My view is that management of cherished places is better and more equitably handled through some type of community management than through private ownership.
This is not addressed specifically at Dr. Bob, by the way. I don't know him or much about the larger situation. I'm just responding to the idea that the simple fact of land ownership precludes the possibility of community input on the management of what are truly, in the end, communal resources.
That cliff has existed for millenia, and will exist long after we are all gone. Some would argue that private ownership is the most efficient path toward preservation, which is a view I disagree with in the long run, but which is fair enough in the short run.
I think your personal view, though, is your more standard boot-licking. I think property ownership is fine in general. There is little community-wide interest in your standard plot in suburban Lexington, and I am fine with private interests seeking profit from the purchase and sale of land. Some places, though, are special.
This is a rather uncontroversial point in most capitalist societies, including ours (see: National Parks, etc.). All I'm saying is that I would love to see Roadside and Torrent (as well as a host of other privately-owned cliffs that currently grant community access, along with those that do not) folded into the RRGCC over the long-run, and would put my money where my mouth is in terms of making that happen. I'm guessing you'll say, 'Well make it happen and quit bitching,' but it's a lot more complicated than that. The tragedy in the red is not privately owned crags like this. Rather it is the ridiculously restrictive “management” of the public lands. They have been planning to study the archeological resources of the area for the last 30 years.
Holistically closing off thousands of miles of cliff line with zero progress. How this is not the Access Funds number one priority and what we are all up in arms about is beyond me. There are hundreds of Torrents and Roadsides that we are not even allowed to trad climb at! So.do we really want that same government to take over Torrent and Roadside? Well, for most of the last 30 years the 'coalition' under Bill Strachan's leadership were unable to move the Forest Service on the ban on bolting, and gave indication that questions about the process were interference, or at least not clarifying or beneficial. Over this time the push for private ownership by the coalition emerged, for better or worse.i would think that if the coalition were to prioritize ownership of roadside and torrent then some time in the future an opportunity may present itself.

Climbing is an inherently dangerous sport. The information in this guidebook is subject to error and should supplement never replace common sense and caution, competent guidance and instruction, and actually being outside. One should be especially cautious on matters of route length, descent type, and number of bolts (especially since such things do change occasionally).

While on vacation in a resort in Mexico, the Americans Jeff, his girlfriend Amy, her best friend Stacy and her boyfriend Eric befriend the German Mathias in the swimming pool. Mathias invites the group to visit the ruins of a Mayan temple with his Greek friend Dimitri in an archeological field where his brother Henrich and his girlfriend are camped eighteen kilometers far from the resort. They hire an old taxi and when they reach the spot, they are surrounded by Mayan villagers armed of revolver, rifle and bow-and-arrow that kill Dimitri and do not allow the group to leave the place. They climb a construction covered of creepers with red flowers, and remain under siege of the locals. When they hear a cell phone in the bottom of a well, Mathias decides to seek the apparatus using a rope that breaks and he has a serious accident breaking his back. Amy and Stacy go to the bottom of the mine to rescue Mathias and they find many corpses covered by the climbing plants; further, they realize that they had been lured by the plants that are vibrating with the sound of a cell phone.
When they are attacked by the carnivorous creeping plants, they understand the reaction of the Mayan villagers.
