Was down there for the weekend, but was a selfish bastard and went climbing, as I had the girlfriend along, and was showing another pair of friends around there for the first time. A couple of my friends put in some sweat equity, tho'.

 

It looked like they had a good turnout- things I noted:

- the usual shoring up of the steps on the front side

- putting up wooden fences around the Morning Glory Wall and Bunny Face (?) areas to help keep folks to the trails in the constant battle against erosion there.

- improving some belay stances along sloping surfaces by hauling rocks and/or backfilling behind wire mesh

- cleaning chalk of some of the routes on Morning Glory (Gumby, etc.) - not that it will do much good, but it was hoped to decrease some of the visual impact.

 

I'm sure other stuff was done, but that's what I observed while there - oh, 70's in the sun - chased shade.
