Additionally, you want to talk about manufacturing? Where do you draw the line then? When you knock tons upon tons of rock off a cliff in the process of cleaning, isn't that already manufacturing? I was so thankful to have a few routes to climb next to the truck after work. The fact that they were drilled brought the grade down from 5.13 or 5.14 to 5.11. Thank. God. I doubt very many 5.14 climbers will be visiting lone mountain.
I also note that neither of you have tried any of the other routes in the area. Yes, the bolt spacing is tight. Don't clip all the bolts! Who cares? This is Nevada and the rock is inherently rotten. You chime in as if you know the history (albeit brief) of the crags. You don't. Perhaps you should shoot Kelly a message before your panties get all bunched? After all, you were just passing through while I had to suffer in Tonopah with very little to choose from for over a year (and will have to return in the future and yes, I will put the perma-draws back up when I do). Will you be back? I sure as hell doubt it. Jun 28, 2018
we climbed several routes in the area and I appreciate Kelly's effort in establishing all the other routes on the various crags here.

I don't consider that manufacturing regarding establishing climbing routes. Big drilled out pockets and edges to lower the grade is manufacturing IMO. Aug 8, 2018
