whipps ledges permit policy pros n cons

Over the next few days we will post a mini guide to climbing at whipps ledges a cleveland ohio metro park it is unfortunate that park users need a permit to recreate in this park.  climbers are not the user group who should penalized due to the ignorant acts of a uneducated local user group. the permit policy only assures that locals will drive to west Virginia or Kentucky to recreate. if you want to climb here you risk being ticketed. how lame are the park officials? that all depends on your level of polite and apologetic  candor you can produce when a Ranger catches you climbing . no wonder le bron left cleveland.
