Bob, I think that this one needs more information. What you have posted here is something like an overview page. It certainly needs a route overview - simply saying that there are hundreds of routes is - imho - not enough.
Think of it that way: I have no idea about the gorge. Now I know there are hundreds of routes - but which are worthwhile? If I am a climber - I might want to know where the climbing locations are - and Dan is right - you could simply google for some links which - if they are appropriate - can be included. You mention rafting - where do you normally start, are there any places where you can rent a raft, maybe online booking is available somewhere?
You certainly don't need to answer all these questions. I just think that google is such a powerful tool, that in almost no time (well, 1h) you'll have six or seven links, which will add the information we need.
Looks like a pretty place, similar to the PA Grand Canyon. Check out my page for that. There are a lot of similarities. Good job though and the links and books additions really helped. Good job and good climbing to you!

Untitled CommentYou really need to add some web links and web resources to provide more information. Also consider looking for possible books?

If you want an example - Look at the second section of my page. I just organized the links according to their contents ;-)
Let me know, what you think about these comments.

Untitled CommentThanks. I'll check out that page.
Someone else added the books and links. Hope some climbers add some routes.

Untitled CommentBob, I wish I could find some of my climbing pictures for this page. If I find something useful, I'll add it.

With so many thousands of climbing sites in the gorge, I was hoping some other SP folk would add some climbing photos.
