If you live in the greater Boulder area take the time tomorrow to call or email the Boulder City Council members (go here for their names and contact info: http://www.ci.boulder.co.us/...council/leaders.html) and voice your opinion about access to Boulder area climbing areas before tomorrow evening's "Study Session". Better yet attend the session:
Boulder City Council Study Session
December 14th
6:00 pm - 8:30 pm
Council Chambers
Municipal Building @ Broadway and Canyon
Many areas are in serious danger of permanent closure including Mickey Mouse Wall, Continental Crag, Upper Peanuts Wall and The Sacred Cliffs. As with many locally decided issues only local residents have a voice. YOU ARE THE VOICE FOR ALL CLIMBERS AT THIS CRITICAL TIME, MAKE OUR VOICE COUNT! Pass this on to your climbing friends, encourage other Boulder areas residents to do their part.

If you read this and don't live in Boulder you can at least provide a bump in support so that we can keep this on the front page today.

Is their agenda to close these areas? What are the issues for these areas?

It seems the good people of the "Republic of Boulder" have a hard time keeping track of what it is that drives their Eutopian State.

Locals taking action is key, but more effective representation and action on these issues by the Access Fund would have been helpful. The people involved with the Fund need to accept their weaknesses in PR with anyone outside the climbing community and let more competent people take over.

Though not a local, I'm an avid Boulder-area climber and would hate to see some of these areas in jeopardy. Props to the thread,

For those who've climbed in Eldo but not on Mickey Mouse, know that it would be a huge loss. It's almost as big and as stacked as the Redgarden Wall. There are many incredible multi-pitch trad and mixed lines, plus some of the best hard sport climbing in the Front Range (so I'm told) on the Industrial Wall which is part of Mickey Mouse.
The City Council discusses this tonight...do they also vote tonight, or does that take place at a later date?
And...bump.
