    The Cliffs at Smith Mountain Lake

    Crazy? Or the best thrill of the summer? Have you jumped from the Cliffs yourself? What will you do now that it's illegal to be there?

     Wouldn't it be more beneficial to the region to promote the cliffs as a beautiful natural resource for recreation?  I have jumped from the cliffs with my daughter and it is a wonderful memory for both of us.

    This is absolutely crazy. I have been jumping off of the cliffs since I was 6 or 7 years old. There is no "liability" issue with the owner of the property as long as the signs are in place. If someone were to get hurt, it would be on them for "trespassing". This is just another lame attempt to keep people from having fun at the lake." Previously the property owners hadn't complained, but now they don't want people on the property while it's being developed, Martin said." This is the main problem with the entire lake recently, too much development from people that want it all for themselves. I wouldn't be surprised to see the owners develop it into something commercial so they can make a profit from people using the cliffs. To them, it's all about the $ sign. Its really sad what this world is coming to.
