So the other day my buddy and I were up at Rincon, and there were a bunch of folks there cragging. We passed by to go to some stuff further down on the West Ridge, but noticed they were listening to music. It seems pretty common these days to bump tunes on your phone/jambox/whatever while climbing at the crags. Does this bother anyone else? Not to gripe, but I like to come out to Eldo and other places to escape technology. But also, I don't like listening to (insert your least favorite type of music here) on shitty speakers while I'm trying to climb. Those of you who listen to music- why do you want to do this in such a beautiful setting? What do people feel the ethic is around this?
