You have to be a boy scout to climb there? You said 'for now' like there's a chance of that changing. Is there?
There's a boy scout camp near hear and I've found that they are very picky about who comes onto their land, but they want all their neighbors with surrounding land to let the boy scouts go on to their land. Kinda stupid.

hey, i live in bartlesville and i am a boyscout. what cmap areu talking about? the only one i know of that is near bartlesville is McClintock. and there isnt any climbing there.
the reason boyscouts are picky about who comes on there property is lawsuites. boyscouts get sued for anyhting up to farting and being a non profit orginazation we have problems paying for it. soo... we have stupid rules like that. it sucks, i agree. but, since u live near me, mabe i could help u get in. let me know whats what

whatever camp is near slippery falls ranch in sulphur.
I don't know of any climbing at McClintock, but then again I've only been out there legally once and that was when I was like 12 and in boyscouts. They do have some pretty sweet bike trails though, and they've kicked me off a couple times. They dont' have a fence, and the trails from osage hills goes straight into McClintock. If you don't want me there, don't give me a trail. They have a tiny little sign that says 'boy scouts only' and I always pick up the sign and lay it flat and then ride on, then some old man in some killer short shorts tells me to get off the property.
But hey, if you are in Shady B we should climb sometime, PM me and we'll set things up. This towns small enough we probably know each other.

To clear this up: I was the one who posted Slippery Falls. They said that they MIGHT let 'organizations' onto the land. So unless you go there as a boyscout (as I did three weeks ago) or you join the Wichita Mountains Climbers Coalition you are out of luck.
Any other questions?
(P.S.: I've been to McClintock and all they have is a suspension bridge and hay bales [at least when I camped there])

Find Sulphur on a map (South-central Oklahoma). then find Reagan (Southeast of Suplur) and Slippery Falls is just South of there.
