stolen crash pad!!!

jcameron1976 2 posts just wanted to post because i'm a little pissed. for anyone who climbs you know that it takes gear. to boulder you need a crash pad. bouldering pads are a necessity and when i returned to the boulders to climb my pad was gone. now you might say you left it there and i would agree if the boulders weren't an hour plus hike off the road all up hill on a trail that only climbers would be on. basically what my whole point is, a climber stole my pad when they could have just used it and left it where they found it. instead now i feel not even the island is cool anymore. what happen to courtesy between climbers? if the person who stole my pad gets to read this then please just put it back and restore my faith in the island.i climb there often so i would appreciate it.
john 163 posts man that sucks, But where were you bouldering? This info may help or at leat I'll know not to leave my pad there
jcameron1976 2 posts sorry, i guess i should have included that bit of info.my pad was taken from the duncan boulders.
FatboySlim 10 posts Just thought you might like to hear another side before you go accusing "climbers". I've been climbing for many many years and have left stuff unattended. Never had anything stolen, luck I'm sure had it's place. But I've seen many a folk walking about in places that I never thought a soul would be. I understand it sucks but don't assume it's a climber please......
john 163 posts Fatboy , I doubt some random hikers would pack out a giant couch cushion out through the bush for an hour. ya maybe it was leprechauns or a bear?
FatboySlim 10 posts Hey John, Andy Arts here, I just don't like it when someone accuses with out any facts what so ever. It just makes an "ASS" out of "U" and "ME"! "climbers" Maybe someone needed a bed to sleep on!! Later.
