Jeez, I must be drunk... posts seem to be appearing then disappearing before my eyes...
I'm looking forward to doing some of these new routes in the Bluies, some for the recent ones I've seen look good.
New routes are generally good, manufacturing isn't. It isn't an unlimited resource. I think it's irresponsible to encourage manufacturing, or even say it's OK. Where will that lead us in 10, 20, 50 years time?
A few climbers might want to educate themselves a bit more on the issue so that they don’t run into problems later on, or create problems for the rest of us, or the future of the "sport". |
