If there was coal or oil underneath it, it would not have had any archeological value to begin with. However, since the infraction was committed by a hippie dirt-bag climber, the establishment gets pissed off. On the other hand, if you were a coal company that owned your own senator, you could legally tear apart the whole mountain. There was a recent incident in my area were some climbers got busted for making a trail ($600 fine), while just uphill from the location, a logging company was clear cutting and bull dozing new roads.
True dat, and I don't begrudge them the coal, timber, gold and the oil myself. It's all about "Control", THEY (da gobment) are looking, no, they ARE, using this kind of bullshit to control the true owners of the land: the people. I'm sure that the dudes doing the work will appreciate the heads up TW. The only way around this kind of big brother bullshit is to pull their funding. However, with the current rush to dole out a few billion dollars, like 800 billion, a lot of that money will go to hiring assholes to come along and hassle you folks for just being on the land you own! Oh, not walking on an established trail? Fine! Oh, climbing where you want? Another Fine!
Those ASSHOLES should be tossed out to do real and productive work instead of being paid big money by all of you to count toilet paper rolls and hassle gentle souls. [/rant]
