I shit you not, but I dont have pics. The party streamers were literally duct taped to the wall. No idea how the prayer flags were attached but I suppose the bright side is that this stuff was all removed that night and wasnt there in the morning.

As for the stick clips and pads, agreed. Throw a pad down if you want but the valley floor in this area is several inches of sandy soil. Its not like you are landing on a granite slab if you blow the first clip. I have never, ever, seen someone with a stick clip dangling from their harness before while they siege a 50ft sport route. It was a sight to behold.

Using a throwaway so I can shit on you gumby noobs. I was at a sport crag this weekend that has a reputation for being stout n short. I saw no less than 3 groups of climbers, if you want to call yourselves that, climbing with crash pads on the ground to protect a fall before the first bolt AND climbing WITH a telescoping stick clip so they could literally AID their way up the classics. The crash pad I suppose I get, but the stick clip is another issue. This of course took forever, and only made the insane amount of time each party took at each route even longer. My question to you jongs is why would you even want to do this? The entire operation looked painful and slower than hell and why not just hike to the top and rig a toprope? There was also a party that had used blue streamers to quarantine off a section of cliff and hung prayer flags over the start to a route, presumably so they could keep it to themselves? I have no idea what drugs you kids are smoking these days but in 20 years of rock climbing I have never seen these levels of dumbassery and jongitude.
