Hey, come on now Richard. "Granite surfaces cause serious scrapes to skin." That's medical emergency shit right there, if you so much as TOUCH a granite surface your ass is going to hospital.

Only if you bum-slide down a rock slab with no pants on.

But maybe for Castle Rock they mean the bit right at the top? I was too chicken to do that section...

I got my Mum to the top of Castle Rock years ago, and that was before the new fancy climb. I must say she was a bit freaked by it all.
