Some local climbing organization - most notably the Western Mass Climbers' Coalition and the Ragged Mountain Foundation - have been successful in standing up to Ken's vandalism. These groups have managed to secure no trespassing orders from landowners. This means Ken is served with no trespassing orders from a Connecticut State Marshall.
If he is caught on the property he can be removed by the police. Additionally, interested parties can begin civil action and attempt to recover loses caused by the vandalism of Mr. Nichols. This is one of the three best ways to stand up to this bully.
Below you will find a list of crags Ken is officially banned from entering and a number to reach the local police if you see him on the property.
