of course tyler, just name the place/date i still havne't been to any of the classic oregon spots, 'cept monkey face
i wouldn't look for too much ryme nor reason to beacon (or any other place's) rules - mostly i do what i like wherever i am and so far that's worked okay - about the only thing that would annoy me on pipedream would be for it suddenly to have a bunch of bolts where none were before - replacing/removing old bolts ain't a big deal to me, but it is to at least one guy i really like and respect there who's been climbing there since i was still swimming around in my daddy's nutsack, so i tend to listen to him
tyler, you'd dig on aiding at beacon big-time - lots of very long, very solid, very scary climbs to be had, and many in essentially FA conditions
