wfinley Posted October 26, 2005 Posted October 26, 2005 Since at least a few of you are either in the south or from the south I'll post this here. If you're not it doesn't matter because everyone loves clean granite! The Carolina Climbers Coalition just signed a contract to purchase Laurel Knob. Laurel Knob is the highest piece of rock E of the Mississippi (even bigger than Whitesides) - and has always been closed to climbing. The contract has been signed but the Carolina Climbers Coalition needs to raise $240,000 by December! This purchase is for 50 acres - including the entire face in the picture below. If enough funds are raised there will be one more big southern cliff you, or your kids, can go scare yourself silly on. Donations are tax-deductible and for a measly $25 (that's 8 soy mocha's) you can get a cool t-shirt! More information is here: http://www.carolinaclimbers.org/ To join or donate go here: http://carolinaclimbers.org/?page_id=30 or contact them at: http://carolinaclimbers.org/?page_id=12 More photos are here: http://www.shullphoto.com/CCC_Laurel.htm Quote
Off_White Posted October 26, 2005 Posted October 26, 2005 That's a nice looking crag, and a much better bargain than Sam Hill was. 1200' high dome? Yeehaw. Quote
TrogdortheBurninator Posted October 26, 2005 Posted October 26, 2005 Those photos look awesome! Nice job on the purchase Quote
