Dr_Flash_Amazing Posted November 5, 2004 Share Posted November 5, 2004 Texas, Texas, Texas ... 61 degrees and partly cloudy at the mudpile! Come, clip some bolts, dog some classics, and bask in the high desert sun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fgw Posted November 5, 2004 Share Posted November 5, 2004 In early '03 (maybe it was '02?), I saw two guys putting in a bolt 20 feet up at Beacon at the place where the base is closest to hwy/parking lot. that would be I guess NE corner. they mentioned that they're putting up a new route. wondering if anyone got any info. on it - has it been completed?

rbw1966 Posted November 5, 2004 Share Posted November 5, 2004 There are a couple or routes on the NNW side of beacon. Not really that inspiring when right around the other side you have so much goodness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivan Posted November 5, 2004 Share Posted November 5, 2004 i heard they fined the guys a shitload for each bolt they put in...at any rate, they conviently placed a sign by the prow of the rock there claiming it's actually part of the west face closure area. fahqers.

rbw1966 Posted November 5, 2004 Share Posted November 5, 2004 When I had a um. . 'discussion' with the ranger during the closure I was informed that the entire east side was closed to climbing permanently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fgw Posted November 5, 2004 Share Posted November 5, 2004 The two guys mentioned that they got an 'OK' from the state park to put up a route there. Guess I can stop looking up at that face trying to pick out the line/bolts now. thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
layton Posted November 6, 2004 Share Posted November 6, 2004 I chopped all the bolts on the 1st class aid route to the top known as the "trail" Careful on those railings guys! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
