You rascal, you.
I thought it would be a link to the ASCA paypal button, enabling
impulse donations.
But yeah, what you said...
Thanks

Thanks, 426. I was still feeling impulsive when I saw your edit..
It still surprises me when I think of what those guys are doing.
Thanks, Greg. Go Team Go!!

I have met Greg out craggin' a few times;...always having fun, psyched about climbing and fixing up bad bolts, and doing something positive for the climbing community;.....he is greatly appreciated by me and, I hope, climbers everywhere who benefit from his hard work and dedication....it's a nasty, dirty job;...especially with a hand-drill, which he has to often use because of antique rules by many Gov. Agencies. I have lots of respect for the guy;.....climbing is dangerous enough w/out the bad bolts........He's The Man.

I think Greg got me on my first climb in the valley, and I freaked the #@%! out of him with my driving skills on our way back to the bay area.
Pah. I've still never been in an accident (knocking on wood, I am!)

oh hell, I'll come out and say it. Greg's disposition and generosity with topos and info and all the rebolting work that he does is why I donate to the ASCA EVERY YEAR!
I think he secretly likes to climb the off the beaten path climbs so makes this excuse of fixing the mank, but hey who doesn't. :)

Thanks for all the good work!
The one quibble I have is that it should be called the American Safer Climbing Association - climbing can never be safe, just safer.

Yeah, Greg and the whole ASCA crew have made the Meadows one hell of a lot safer. Thanks to Drew and his crew too for putting all those new bolts on the big dome.
Greg has also been putting some fine new routes up in TM (even if there are occasionally too many bolts, oh such a problem to have).

Yeah, thanks to all rebolters.
When I see ASCA stamped on a hanger it's always placed correctly (e.g. flush) and inspires complete confidence.

"No buy Barnes a Beer button?"......I've tried! But alas, Greg doesn't drink!! Buy the man a Mountain Dew, he drinks them like they're going out of style!
Greg is one of the nicest human being you'll ever meet!!
Thanks Greg!!
Let me know when you want to do a Colorado trip.

I met Greg in Toulumne a few years back dodging thunder storms. Greg is one of today's great climbers. He is dedicated to the sport, FA's and taking care of his fellow climbers. Besides that he's a darn nice guy to boot. I'll buy ya a beer Greg even if Jaybro won't!
