The Wilderness Society recognizes climbing as a long-standing tradition in wilderness, yet we recognize that climbing can have, like many recreational uses, an impact.
More Quotes from Jay Watson:
Anywhere you have an active level of climbing, you're going to see fixed anchors, ... There are different kinds of fixed anchors, from a bolt drilled into a rock or an old-time piton hammered into a crack. It's everything from the actual hardware to nylon webbing wrapped around an outcrop. They provide protection for climbers and are particularly useful when you're coming down or rappelling.Jay Watson
