Heidi Redd, rancher and owner of the lease that encompasses SCB and BOTBB has finally had enough. After learing that the glyphs up on SCB were being trampled on, Heidi has had enough. She has worked with climbers in the past, but this was the straw that broke the camels back. It will be announced officially next week. Bummer.

I am going to call bullshit using no evidence other than wishful thinking. Why would Heidi Redd close down Super Crack and BOB and not any of the other buttresses on her property? See the section on Private Landhttp://friendsofindiancreek.org/camping.php

It'll be a sad day if we lose access to this area. I hope it's only temporary.

this is a troll. It was a good troll, though, because it hits so close to reality, and COULD happen, given the way things have gone for the last few years.. Climbers at the Creek often see themselves as low-impact, in-tune-with-the-earth nature lovers. Heidi sees them as little different than ATV'ers who tear up the land for their own fun and then leave. sad.

foic wrote: Access, Climbers and Cows Many climbers are drawn to Indian Creek not only for its unique hard-core crack climbing, but also its primitive, wide-open feeling. If the "Creek" doesn't exemplify the Wild West and freedom then no place does. Still, what climbers may perceive as public land might actually be private Dugout Ranch property; what now seems like unmanaged use could in the future be closed or restricted. not entirely out of the range of possibilities, is it? What would be a real shame would be if she decided to just close it down COMPLETELY. The selfish wants of the few, resulting in everyone else getting screwed. I'd have to take a baseball bat to someone's legs if it really DID happen, and I don't mean Heidi's.
