Are they really Safer Cliffs? 14-Feb-2013 At 3:40:21 PM Gluey
Message
As a relatively new climber (~2 years) and young climber (21) I could be seeing things through a naive perspective. Having said that, I think those who make the assumption that trad climbing is unsafe would be somewhat an "unsafe*"/quick fix climber themselves. To assume that trad is unsafe rather then researching gear/ reading books/ watching videos only serves as proof that their actions are short sited/ lazy. It doesn't take very long to speak to someone to find out where the risks lie in both sport and trad so I'd hazard a guess that those that aren't aware aren't interested.

*if they were to climb trad routes
