Are they really Safer Cliffs? 14-Feb-2013 At 3:04:08 PM kuu
Message
One of the, I assume, unintended consequences of the emergence and promotion of Safer Cliffs Australia (formerly Safer Cliffs Victoria) may have been the apparent assumption, by (predominantly?) newer entrants to the climbing scene, that BOLTS = SAFE and therefore NO BOLTS = UNSAFE. This would seem to rule out any likelihood of these climbers embracing the notion of Trad climbing.

Despite having a history reaching back more than 50 years in this country (and longer elsewhere) does Trad climbing need its proponents to do a better Sell Job in getting the message across to newcomers to the recreation?
