Trouble in Paradise

So we finally did it. We got Coll's Cove shut down. Well, temporarily.. Hopefully.. See, parking at Colls is a tricky situation. It's an entrance to a gas line access road that lies on private property. We hike this gas line road back to the State Game Lands. Well someone finally fucked it up by improperly parking so a gas line vehicle could not get through. It is the responsibility of the land owner to keep this right of way open to all gas line traffic, therefore he has disallowed parking at this location. However, he is willing to build lot off to the side if we pay for the gravel and kiosk. The tentative plan when the lot is complete is to have everyone sign a  release of liability waiver and "donate" $5 per car... So fear not fellow climbers, we're fixing the problem. It might be a month or two until you can go to Coll's again, but hey you never heard about the place until we told you so shut up. Myself and a few others in my group have permission to park in the land owners personal driveway, if you are desperate to go to coll's just get a hold of me.
