This is really a suxor thing to have happen to someone, but it begs the question, "How safe is our stuff in our rigs at Rope-up when we're out climbing?"

 

Do some cc.com'ers hang around to keep an eye on things, or what? Even with my HO insurance, it would still be a bitch to go about replacing all that shit acquired over 20-odd years or so...

In past years, there have been some spouses and sprayers hanging aroung the campsite during the day at ropeup, and I've felt pretty good about leaving my stuff unlocked and unattended. However, thefts in campgrounds are not unheard of -- take whatever you may think are appropriate precautions and don't rely on someone else to watch your stuff. I don't think anybody is going to be appointed security, but maybe that could be a lottery type thing and the "loser" has to sit around and not climb.

We should have a sticky with a list of places for people to look for their gear when it gets stolen (Second Ascent, etc). Perhaps with contacts (phone/email) so that the victim can call up and report this (like any gear that comes in with "go" on it).

And to follow up, the is a proven-effective deterent that I learned about in my Montana History class. 777 pitty.gif
