Where is everyone going for the long weekend?
Any place guaranteed to be hammered and to be avoided? All NP's?

Gunks will be a zoo most definitely

I'm heading to Moab/IC and I predict some craziness - depends on how many green plates (colorado) people are headed over.

I expect the platte outside of Staunton/Turkey to have upwards of 30 climbers this weekend which likely breaks some sort of attendance record

30 doesn't sound like that many people at an area? Is this a single rock/route that will have 30?

A beautiful granite dome outside San Diego that no one knows about and is absolutely the best thing in known human existence, just kidding, I am going to climb some choss!

The concept that proximity dictates entitlement is laughable.

Unless you are Navajo or Mormon you are not more entitled to it then anyone else

No that’s 30 people over about a 200sqmi area

What about dogs? Where are all the dogs going?

But, but... the CO climber has a "Native" sticker right next to his license plate. That counts for something, right?

Are the Ute?

I’m expecting low crowds on my homewall but that’s because I didn’t invite anyone.

Didn’t you move from CO to UT? If so you’re technically green turncoat.

 I thought SLC is the bees knees - no crowds, no traffic, easy access, bountiful world class climbing (although recent fatalities from rockfall are making me think otherwise). Why drive 5 hours when you got all this at your doorstep?

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
