I’m not sure what the average New York Times reader cares about rock climbing restrictions in any country let alone Cuba, but I think climbers will find this piece by Alex Lowther interesting:
In March, one guard, a congenial man in a green button-down shirt, said: “We don’t like to say climbing is prohibited. Climbing isn’t prohibited, because prohibited is an ugly word.

”But may one climb?
“No,” he said.
NYT is writing about climbing access issues? Am I in bizarro world? They should write an article about Minnewaska State Park; it’s in their backyard. It’s not as exotic as Cuba, though.

The article is about the politics of Cuba, not really access issues that climbers face.

What? The article is explicitly about a seldom-enforced, nonsensical, government-imposed climbing ban, and how it applies differently to Cubans vs. tourists. A general critique of the Cuban government is your own inference.

Sounds like it’s status quo down there… you’re not *supposed* to be climbing, but you can anyway as long as you keep a low profile. ie no cuba libre wall on sundays. don’t let this stop you from going, it is a beautiful place and the climbing is amazing and they can really use our support to help keep the fire burning.

you guys obviously don’t know what it is to live in a country where opinions and ideas don’t mean anything…… any idea at all. maybe a couple of days in a cuban jail would clear your minds. still…the fight continues….
