you're dead wrong M9 - e.g. it only took one person to crap near the creek at the Ravine and the entire climbing community has been tarnished on that issue (this is fact, not speculation)

Yes there are "grey" areas of climbing behaviour (eg bolts, tracks, chalk) which could also affect access but which are more or less (depending on your point of view) inherent to the activity itself. But dogs and toilet habits are black and white. Breaking these rules is ***completely unnecessary*** to achieve a good day of climbing. so why the hell would you?

I might add the dog isn't allowed at the campground either.

I hope Jarmila is not taking this personally (if shes reading) as I am trying to criticise the act not the person but it needs to be said IMO.
