I am strongly supporting the inclusion of Rock climbing among the permitted activities in this area. Rock climbing is generally safe and environmental conscious activity, with minimal ecological impact and disturbance on the local wildlife, in comparison with other activities.

Devil's Glen is one of Ontario's best parks for recreating both on the trails and on the rocks as a climber. Visiting the park has offered me the opportunity to connect more with the land in Ontario in a responsible and respectful way.

Devils Glen is an important natural area used by people recreating in many ways including climbing. This amendment would reflect the true use of the park and is a great idea
Highly supportive of climbing at Devil's Glen - climbers have a relatively low environmental impact, but are great advocates for preserving natural spaces. Ontario has a shortage of great climbing areas, but the beauty of Devil's Glen is a gem among them!
