I think there is some great climbing there. Regardless of what you think about the rock in Arches, this is the part of the letter that I think we should be very concerned about: Arches National Park is grouped with 3 other Parks in its administration. Many of the rules that govern one Park eventually fall into the rule book for the one next door. In this case, Canyonlands, an area containing more Windgate and Cutler towers than the rest of the world combined, is next door. A draconian rule in Arches could eventually lead to one in Canyonlands. If that's the case, it would look like a precedent for other Parks in the country to follow. The trickle-down effect could be seen with the BLM and Forest Service. In other words, we could lose a lot more climbing resources than the 76,000 acre's and 100's of towers that is Arches.

Me think you wrong, sucka. Too many 40's... Straight Shooter?

Forecast for Almo, ID this weekend is sunny and mid-50's. However, I understand the City gets a bit of snow. Is climbing there an option this weekend, or will it be impossible to get in there?
