I'd actually refute that point and say fisherman are a lot more prolific than climbers. They certainly get there earlier and stay later!

Yep, I'm sure that will make the ADF feel all ok about you guys chopping their anchors. This totally confirms that you guys have no interest in talking to anyone. Because it wouldn't take more than one phonecall to Rick Phillips or myself to tell you that all those new bolts at the top of the cliff were from the Navy. It was very common knowledge. Obviously common knowledge isn't so common afterall.
