Description Suggest change

On the start of the trail to Ursa there are 4 (re)cleaned boulders with perhaps some of the highest concentration of easy problems (15 V0-V1) around Squamish. These were (re)scrubbed and (re)sent by Simon Duguy and Tanya Mireault. Some of these are undoubtedly first ascents, judging by the trundling and carpet moss that had to be removed. Others are older problems that have been sent before.

Unfortunately the toxic nature of online Squamish rock climbing groups and lack of proper documentation makes it exceptionally difficult to determine what was climbed before and when. The (re)developers of these boulders don't care about such online shenanigans and would rather see them climbed.

Note that some debris may have fallen on these boulders since they were (re)scrubbed. It is up to the claimants of these FAs to go out there and clean off their claimed boulders. The (re) developers have already put in a full season of work.

No names will be given to these problems at this time due to the aforementioned issues.

Note that any claim of FAs need to be before the date of (re)scrubbing. The (re)developers have documented their work and what needed to come off the boulders. Other developers in the area can confirm any work which was done during this time and would be able to validate the dates of previous claimed development.
