Vandalism Update - Thoughtful Spot

Mar 27 2023

none

Thoughtful Spot has suffered irreversible damage due to individuals altering holds. Addressing misconceptions, we clarify the following:

  1. The damage is not natural wear; such assumptions display inexperience and disrespect for maintaining climbing areas. Expert opinions should be heeded.
  2. Smoothing holds does not improve climbing; granite texture enhances the experience. Claims to the contrary are misguided.
  3. Those responsible for the damage have stopped. We assume it was a mistake, but we'll act if such behavior resumes.

We must acknowledge the loss and prioritize responsible stewardship of nature.
