Area Updates:

• - Mike Endrizzi is still working to replace old bolts at Red Wing. HeÕs got about 20 routes left, Maybe 2 more years. Any donations for equipage can be arranged through his website. PLEASE SUPPORT THESE FOLKS--SEND THEM MONEY.
• Page 110. Keith Anderson is on Barnburner, not Mississippi Burning. Or is he? You decide. The bolts on Barnburner were removed as of fall 2000. May this Bolt War rest in peace.
Don't top rope over cold shuts. Clip your own slings into the shuts and TR off of them. Here's why.
• Ratings change here constantly. The EZ routes are getting polished and holds break every year. Assume that the guidebook is wrong or ask a local. Don't be afraid to stick clip the first bolt, thought the second clip is often still a groundfall if you blow it.

Additional Comments:

• Every leader should carry an extra 'leaver biner' to replace manky carabiners at the chains. If you don't leave at least a biner a year you're not doing your part.
