Dude I was just explaining one of the reasons the cliff is meaningful to me. That’s clearly not the reason we bolted it, because we had already bolted it the night before. And we bolted it because it’s one of the most beautiful Highlines at Point Perp, which I felt was a legitimate enough reason at the time. If you can’t relate to the story that’s fine, I didn’t write it to make people angry just to show it’s significance.

I’m trying to work together with all user groups at this cliff to find the best outcome, but if people make personal attacks on me it doesn’t really fill me with joy and motivate me to destroy my own work. I understand you were probably annoyed at what I wrote when you wrote your message, but please just try and keep it constructive.

While I’m on the thread of trying to be constructive. How would people feel if I left one threaded rod at each Highline anchor? I know it’s a compromise, but that would potentially allow us to still highline there (during quiet times of course), and it could still be used by climbers (I'd obviously soften the edges too, so that ropes are safe). If you’re not happy with that, just let me know? If you’d be ok with that, would you prefer if I left the hanger on or took it off?
