Access Issue: Access to GFNP (Roadside) REQUIRES a Daily Permit
Details
Access Requirement and History
GFNP (aka Roadside) has reopened on a limited, permit-only basis. GET A PERMIT OR DO NOT CLIMB HERE. The crag will be closed again if the rules are not followed and the next closure will likely be indefinite.
IMPORTANT RULES & ANNOUNCEMENT
1. There is no access to permits through grainingfork.org. Communicating through the Facebook page or email for Graining Fork Nature Preserve are the best ways to obtain a climbing permit and stay up to date on crag information.
2. PERMITS MUST BE APPLIED FOR ON THE PREVIOUS MONDAY IN ADVANCE -- plan ahead.
3. Email GFNPreserve@gmail.com to request a permit. The email must include the name of the people on the permit (8 or less per group), age of the individuals, state of residence, date requested for the permit, and a statement that the individuals on the permit have read and agree to follow the rules. Link grainingfork.org/rules/
4. Do not call Hop's for information about getting a permit. Either send a message through FB messenger or the email on point 3. Allow time to respond.
5. Per ABC rules, there is no outside alcohol allowed in the parking lot. The parking lot is owned by Hop's (and not part of GFNP), which is not allowed to have outside alcohol as part of their ABC license. In general, be respectful that Hop's provides parking and use of the restrooms.
Lastly, the permit process is in place to preserve the flora and fuana, safety, liability, and to reduce erosion to maintain a quality crag for many many years.
***Climbers MUST NOT climb at GFNP without a daily permit per person in each group.*** This isn't about just you getting away with climbing for a day without a permit--this is about the climbing community respecting private land to ensure continued access privileges.
Don't be selfish--get a permit or climb elsewhere.In May 2011, after privilege abuse by climbers, Roadside was closed to all access. In March 2015, the area reopened as Graining Fork Nature Preserve (GFNP) with access limited to users obtaining a required daily permit and a suggested donation. In November 2019, the crag was closed again due to the continued disrespect of the crag & the landowner. Once again, it has re-opened to the public in September 2021, PLEASE FOLLOW THE RULES AND RESPECT THE LAND.
Climbers should be on their utmost best behavior at GFNP. The Rules grainingfork.org/rules/ include:
* Packing your poop and toilet paper out
* Leaving your dogs at home
* No alcohol or drugs
* Not blasting music
* Being respectful of the area. Treat the area like you'd treat your own backyard.
