Armando Menocal is the original climbing advocate. He shaped the nascent climbing advocacy movement of the 1980s and 90s, and innumerable climbing areas are open today, and fixed anchors are not prohibited, thanks to his leadership.

Looks like there's a new resoler in town for us Canucks. Based out of Hamilton, Ontario, turnaround time of 4 weeks!
