Comic Rocks

There were a couple of large trees recently cut down at Comic rocks. I don't recall that they were in the way of any climbs. Were they cut to speed the drying of the crag? Any one have any info? It looks like crap there now with a pile of cut trees everywhere.

Is it for the powerline?

Seems like someone is a bit happy with the saw. Same thing at Brunser overhang area, just happened in the last week or so (been there both of the last two weekends).

Doesn't seem like powerline stuff, much more branch trimming going on at low levels next to the cliff. When hydro comes through they raze the whole area.

I appreciate the sunlight, but the loss of shade at the base is much suck.

Anyone want to fess up? Same peeps? Or perhaps not.

Yah I wouldn't think it was for the hydro wires since they left large trees right beside the ones cut. Seems someone is chain saw happy and thought more light was good. But the cut trees made a mess.
