I realize I'll be spray/crucified for what I'm about to say... Nevertheless, I've witnessed serious rockfall at almost every premier crag in the NW (Beloved Index included, but not Equinox yet...)and it seems to me if one merely glances at the base of a crag, that rockfall has been and will continue to be a factor in this environment regardless of human interaction. There are gyms around if that's not your thing. But to completely quit a crag for it's reputation or any singular experience seems absurd. Do you expect alpine rock routes to be void of rockfall as well? We all realize that our hobby is dangerous, yet that may also be part of why we do it.
