I have watched climbing develop over the decades from this flatlander perch. I have had my hands on sandstone, granite and limestone, watched us (climbers) worry about bolting, accept the need to use colored chalk in areas, answer the question - trad or sport?, and accept using plastic to get our fix. As an Okie, I have had the good fortune to meet and climb with some great people both local and as a visitor to other great locations and I look forward to seeing others keep this sport in their life - as I have been able to do.
