Not necessarily. Depends on your goal. Ex:If you get on your project with the goal of climbing the first crux clean, that you have not succeeded at previously, and you do..... then that is a personal success. Others may view it as a failure bc they don't know what your goal is. |  FLAG |

| the area is private land, I don't think steel perma-draws are appropriate
I don't think project draws in Little Cottonwood are a good idea because it is almost completely made up of either wilderness or private land
I am sorry your draws got nabbed, my wallet and phone were stolen from that area last summer |  FLAG |

Yes Shawn. Got it. Thanks for pointing out the obvious. All of my example were jokes including the bedroom. One is equally silly as the next including the draws. |  FLAG |

The above statement is wrong.
Regarding climbs on the northside of LCC Canyon.
The Coffin and environs (Bong Eater, Egg, Crescent Crack, etc) is public land. Everything down canyon from the LDS Church Vaults is public land owned by the Bureau of Reclamation and Forest Service. All of it is managed by the Forest Service who consider any gear left on routes to be abandoned and trash.
For completeness, climbing up canyon from the vaults up to and including the Gate Buttress proper are on land owned by the LDS Church. The Black Peeler environs is owned by Pertetual Storage. Farther up canyon is then again publicly owned land. |  FLAG |

Maybe if you cut back on the guitar and train a bit more, you'd send your damn project then we wouldn't have to hear about your weak sauce not being able to send, then gettin' your draws jacked.

| Wouldn't it be great to see this thread:
"Draws left on route up by the Coffin. I was climbing near the Coffin and noticed someone left draws on a route up there. I didn't remove them but I wish you would, whoever you are.
The climbing community experiences enough land use/access challenges even when we do 'leave no trace.' Please keep this in mind and remove your draws when you're done for the day." |  FLAG |

| To bad so sad. I am glad that there is someone out there making the point that if you are too lazy to clean up after yourself, your shit will be gone. Keep up the good work. Booty is Booty. If it's on the wall and not attached to rap/belay stations it is booty. Good booty hunting all. maybe soon we can get people to stop bolting everthing around, stop being ego maniacs in search of the next FA on sub elite sport climbs. There are plenty out there use the ones that are exisitning and stop bolting the hell out of every rock wall you find. Off topic, but it seems in most cases this is done for self promotion, and potential sells of guidebooks. Gay. |  FLAG |

While I agree with all of those statements, you know what's not lame? Delicious pancakes. Mmmmm. They're my favorite.
Try putting some corn in your pancakes. I know, it sounds weird, but corn in your pancakes is actually really delicious. |  FLAG |
