Read This!! Take a second and help!!

OK, everybody, do you want to be an access warrior? Here is your chance to help out from your computer chair for free! The Nature Conservancy is asking for some help getting a grant for trail construction on the Nine Times Perserve in South Carolina. Why is this important to the CCC? The Nine Times Preserve holds a few boulders, but nothing of great climbing interest at the present; however, the preserve borders an area of extreme importance. Just accross the street lies Big Rock, and The Nature Conservancy could be a powerful alli in obtaining access there in the future. The land the Nine Times preserve lies on now was owned by the same company that still owns Big Rock.

Poplar Tent Boulders

Poplar Tent Boulder Field is a great bouldering area with many high quality boulder problems. It has always had a sketchy access. Right now it seems ok to boulder there as long as you park complely off the paved area so the lance trucks are not impeded. A low key is also vey advisable.

This blog is to raise awareness of this unique gem of a bouldering area where many climbers such as Doug Reed, Cal Swaoger, Tim Fisher, and many others trained and had fun. I would like to see some interest in saving this place for the long haul.

Send me Table Rock, SC info! Please!

Ok. Here is what I am thinking. Can we compile all known Info on Table Rock S.C.. Route info, park contacts, Topos, etc....  If we can put it together and increase awareness within the climber community, then maybe we can increase our presence as a user group. I am putting out an official request to anyone who may have info or incite into how to start this. Send me every piece of info you can come across and I will see what I can get started. Call me (864)940-4452, email me bdscottconstruct [at] bellsouth [dot] net, private message me on this site, or just comment on this. Whatever you got, I want it! Thanks, Brad Scott

The time has come

The time has come to reach for truth. The time has come to look within. It's time to cast off the tarnished chains that you call silver. Time to identify that the sense of self you cling to so tightly is not holding you together, it's holding you back. Time to realise that if life doesn't scare you then maybe you're not particpating. The time to see that your selfworth is not quantified by sexual partners, checking account balances, number of friends on Facebook, or the amount of people at your impending funeral that will say"here lies an individual that conformed to his societal role".The time has come to be the hero in your life by slaying the dragon of ego. Realize that our world has formed a line of acceptability and we are all standing on the edge.
