I am in support of the proposed addition of rock climbing as a permitted recreational use. Devil's Glen provides the climbing community with access to some wonderful parts of the Niagara Escarpment that should be preserved, while providing protections for the local ecosystem.

I support this policy change, most noticeably the codification of making rock climbing within the park a permissible activity. Rock climbing is a great way to experience our parks, and I am happy the parks have decided to welcome climbers.

I support climbing in Devil's Glen PP and all other provincial parks. Climbing is a long established outdoor recreation activity that has been practiced in Ontario with historical evidence of ascents at Mount Nemo in late 1890s Alpine journals preparing for climbing in the Alps. Read more

The Devils Glen is a special place. It offers a wide range of climbing, many routes being classics in Ontario. It would be an absolute travesty to not be allowed to use this space for a sport that thrives in areas like this. Read more
