The accepted etiquette at the Gunks has always been you don't top-rope trad lines or you at least get out of the way of trad climbers, especially on super popular three star trad climbs like Frogs Head.

This made me laugh. Ooh, ooh... trad climber, let him through, let him through!</quote>

Yeah, I've got to admit that sounds elitist but the tradition at the Gunks has always been that leaders have the right of way. That tradition has been watered down over the years as there are more and more climbers...

Actually, that's far more an artifact of the William's guide books than real Gunks tradition. It's the world according to Dick--or, more accurately, the way Dick would like the world to be. Cool
