"Then just like Tony Calderone was showing you how to get to his latest secret project, rakkup guides you car to crag then shows you a picture when you arrive. Awesome."
Yeah, Awesome. Hopefully this weekends rain will wash that litter out of the canyon.

Before doing so I would suggest taking time stamped, GPS located photos of any illegal activities on national forest lands. Such photos can easily done by most smart phones. Send the pictures to the FS LEOs.
I picked up TC's City and Castle Rakkup guides and found a bizarre assortment of misleading information, including formations shown in the wrong locations, bogus FA info, inclusion of long-closed climbs along the California Trail, and numerous routes marked as "not rated", among other issues.
Additionally, some of the text in his intro is disturbingly similar to phrasing from my guides. If this were anything bigger than small-time guidebook writing, I'd be tempted to file plagiarism charges.
I've contacted the good folks at Rakkup, and they are trying to remedy the situation.
