Team Geared Up

LONDON, UK (Team Geared Up) - An interesting post appeared on climbing.ie during the week, and a suitable debate has followed. The author is ‘Arther Aggs’, specifically not ‘Arthur’, any idea who this is? Is it an anagram? maybe, so from now on I’m going to call him ‘Garter Gash‘.

Hi all, just to let you know, and give you warning that you will see me over the winter digging holes at the top of most of the main popular climbs around the quarry. I am going to be putting in some metal stakes for belays. All stakes will be tested for suitability and once finished will be clearly marked and identified as to the details to contact for further information. I hope this will open up climbing without the continued strangulation and suspect dependancy of little yellow bushes.

Garter Gash has proven he’s not a fly by night staker! and come back with some great answers to his critics including the statement:

Consultation will be taken with the MCI, all passing trade in the quarry and the council.

Looking forward to finding out who it is, and your opinion, so get voting YES/NO:

-Robin-
