Creepy Crawlers - Forgotten Wall

The biners donated to the anchors of Creepy Crawlers by the developer are now missing. I am assuming that they were stolen as the biners were zap strapped to the chains. Someone who went through the trouble to remove the biners were doing one of two things. Either they were going to replace them or ...

The lost dynamic lead belay

Is dynamic lead belaying a thing of the past? Do they not teach this anymore? I saw two instances in the last week that made me cringe. First instance. I was at a crag that offered a lot of 10s and as a result there were a lot of climbers who were cautious with leading. Well, one of them took a whip...

I can definately see the point for multi-pitch and/or gear climbing. Buy I was asking about sport.

Thank you for your input iff. And, Yes. That is what climbers have to do now. But the point you are missing here is that the entire wall (including Low Impact) was set up so that one wouldn't have to thread through the chains. I am looking for help to get it back to the way it was before the theft. ...

The thing with quick links is that one would still have to secure themsleves at the anchors, untie, rethread through the quick links, and then tie in. The whole idea behind the biners is that they are very convient.

Not going anytime soon... nothing left for me to do there. I just know that when I was there last time the markers for the start was not very obvious.

Preferable cheap used ones that have been retired not because they have been dropped. Straight or bent gate non-locking.

Low Impact - Forgotten Wall

The chains on the anchors of Low Impact are now showing visible wear. This is because of the theft of the donated biners that were fixed there in order to facilitate the ease of clean the route when one was done. Eventually they will become dangerous all because of f#*king idiots! Is anyone open to ...

Helmets and Sport climbing

Do helmets and sport climbing go hand-in-hand? Are they necessary? I can see it for some instances, but for single pitch climbing is there any need? Are people being told to be aware of the dangers of certain aspects of climbing and are they then assuming that it is prevalent in all aspects? What do...
