Hello everyone!
I've been a regular climber for the past 4/5 years (although, not very good at updating my log book) and have always been interested in getting into crag development.
There is a location near to my hometown which I would be keen to develop but I am hesitant and need some advice:
1. Who needs informed (the crag is visible from the town) i.e. local council?
2. Any issues that you may have faced that I should be aware of?
3. What reasons would there be for not developing a rock?
4. Are there any legal ramifications I should be aware of?
I have read up on route setting, bolting (the routes would need to be sport), safety, etc. but I feel the more information I have the better!
Thanks in advance!
Alan
