I felt like I'd fallen into a parallel universe. LMAO! I think we'd have fun with them. ;-)

I've reread it three times. Sorry. Got nothing by way of comprehension there.

Make perfect sense to me,

Here is a place that is using rock climbers in their State advertizing, and busting rock climbers in state campgrounds for being too noisy partying.

Some of the saner suggestions are-
"give us a corner of the campground away from the fogey's who want to go to bed at 8pm.
Some of the less sane are suggesting limits on what size guns should be shot while drunk.
PS. that person was probably joking as climbers have enough hardware without hardware.

Gitit now?

Partying is for bars and such. Campgrounds are for camping. I frickin' HATE inconsiderate asshats who think they have the right to make all the damn noise they want in public campgrounds.

Ahh Nigal,

Camp 4 at Yosmite, and Camp slime at the 'gunks are climbrs campgrounds, minimal (sometimes a porta potty) amenities at the base of the cliff.

These are not hot shower for 1/4, and concrete pad with elec. hookup for the winnebago.
Most of the hiking is vertical.

I definately enjoy camp 4 - I'm not much of a climber, but I'll go party with 'em.

Ya gotta love it
Camp 4 is listed on the National Register of Historic Places "for its significant association with the growth and development of rock climbing in the Yosemite Valley during the "golden years" of pioneer mountaineering".

It is truly an international camp site.

Great place to party too.

I just thought it was a funny thread. The title, first off. Then, the person speaking, who is not comprehended. Then, they speak their own lingo. And, they were getting busted. All that's happened here, too.

Most of all, I just like to say out loud, "Sushifesters BUSTED." I mean, I could see TT having a Sushifest....

I loved the atmosphere at Camp 4 and, had I been 20 years younger, would have definitely spent some time there...I love the irrevererance of climbers...the combination of their dedication to the art of the rock and partying creates an atmosphere I would have found intoxicating when I was in my 20-30's...I still enjoyed stopping by just to watch the wonderful madness...so undisciplined in the campground, so disciplined on the rocks...very cool combo...

Everybody just needs to live and let live and it'll all be aw-ite.

And, yeah, maybe Nigal wouldn't be so happy at Trail Days. Should we start callin him Gramps now?
