Sources: http://hongkongclimbing.com/blacks-link/ Guidebook by Francis Haden and Rich Cuncliffe Black Crag is an easily accessible south-facing cliff of enjoyable HK island broken-slab climbing with a fantastic view out over the south of the island. It is two hundred metres below and left of the existing traditionally protected climbing on Blacks Link Outcrop, both easily visible from Blacks Link. Note: Blacks Link Outcrop is the prominent crag with an overhanging nose to the upper right on the skyline. There are known to be two existing traditional routes on Black Crag. Based on available information and the vintage of climbing equipment found in the bushes at the base of the crag, they are presumed to have originally been climbed in the 1970's. The names of these climbs have not come to light, so they are named as ORIGINAL ROUTE and RIGHT HAND ROUTE in recognition of their early ascents. In general, Black Crag is a low grade climbing venue, with the difficulty graded between F5 and F6a for most climbs. As such it is expected that Black Crag will become one of the most popular venues on Hong Kong Island for the ease of access and comparatively large number of similar grade routes adjacent to one another. The rock quality is particularly good, the routes of reasonable length and they are well equipped with marine grade stainless steel bolts and rappel rings.

I think a couple routes need some TLC w the odd bolt repositioning, anchor upgrades, and cleaning / deshralpifying the razors and death crozzlies that can destroy the skin. I think any changes should be discussed w Miles and Co beforehand. Dont let any of that stop you from checking the place out - it is cool and unique - MN

The Ghetto is far and away the best overhanging bouldering area in Colorado -- and perhaps the best overhanging bouldering outside of Hueco Tanks. Blessed with an iron hard veneer similar to the stonker stone on the Third's east face, this slot/cave affair offers problems ranging from 8-move, powerful V9s to 90+ foot link-ups, where you're never more than a foot or two off the ground.

Just downhill from the Birthday Boulder. Down climb the NE side of the boulder via large huecos at the top leading into a wide crack feature, with good feet. The SE side offers a few good slabs. The W side is great for warming up, with a few V3–5 climbs on incut crimps, with ample opportunity to link and eliminate.

An amazing remote crag with lots of routes and boulders. An online guide is currently being made by founder Colin Shepitka and one of the main bouldering establishers Curtis Sawatzky. Link will be added when the site is online.

Dolomite giants off the shore of Bow lake underneath the gaze of the crowfoot glacier. The area is a highballer’s dream. There is also potential for many great safe moderates for those willing to develop.

Cordova Bay is also known as Timber Lane in Peter Michaux's old guidebook. On Cordova Bay accessed via Timber Lane there are some short bouldering bluffs on the beach. [Area Guide](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ieJob95IGgNQkCpK5_5aiCq97Ni-6ATs6rpPgtObCXk/edit?usp=sharing) This small area close to town offers several excellent problems on some of the best rock on the island, and a long cliff band that is pretty fun to traverse. The downside to this area is that when the tide is high it is inaccessible, so make sure to time the tides right. You can check the tides for the area at this link: http://www.tides.gc.ca/eng/station?sid=7140

[Kris Maclellan's Utgaard Guide](http://www.krismaclellan.com/utgard-boulder/) Website accessible via Internet Archive Wayback Machine as it is currently down: https://web.archive.org/web/20200126220729/http://www.krismaclellan.com/utgard-boulder/ Útgarðar - Outlands This area has been entirely developed by local Kris Maclellan in the summer of 2018, he gave me permission to use his topo and descriptions in this guide but if you’d like more information straight from the source here is a link to the Utgard guide that he put together http://www.krismaclellan.com/utgard-boulder/. Major props to Kris for putting in the time to clean this wall it's a beauty, and certainly took some time and effort. If you head out there consider bringing a wire brush to help maintain it, the moss grows fast but if everyone does a little cleaning, hopefully it won’t ever need to be fully cleaned on rappel again! The Utgard Boulder offers slab bouldering. The wall leans generously in places, so good footwork can lead to fun and easy sending. The wall is also pockmarked with little gouges, which create a range of holds from slopers to mini jugs. There is a horizontal incut crack system, an incredible diagonal line of protruding crystals, and a general "shattered" look to the rock. The pictures of this boulder do not make it seem as tall as it is. Kris reports that it is about 20’ of rope from top to bottom. The delicate feet, and slopey hands up high will definitely get your heart pumping, every route on this wall is a bit of an adventure! From Aidan Nickel's Guide

Le secteur qui a fait la renommée d’Orford dans les années 2000, avec sa grande concentration de voies de haut niveau ainsi que ses indénombrables « link-ups » qui sont utilisés soit pour isoler un des crux d’une voie difficile, soit pour combiner ceux-ci afin de rehausser le niveau Plusieurs des voies possèdent des relais intermédiaires, vestiges d’une époque durant laquelle la partie supérieure de la grotte n’était pas grimpée, ce qui confère souvent deux noms aux voies : un pour le bas seulement, un autre pour la version intégrale. La base du secteur étant plus large que son sommet, on compte plusieurs départs alternatifs qui rejoignent les mêmes lignes

Hi Everyone! wn a better description for Gold Mine, firstly I'd like to introduce myself! My name is Brendan Baars, a climber from Michigan. I was a part of the main 3 guys that found and established Gold Mine and The Nooks. The Nooks is what we call the whole area and Gold Mine is just a sub area to the region. I am writing this because Gold Mine has received so much attention from everyone in Ontario! I'm blown away with the response to the area and thank everyone that put in time and effort to maintain the trails and develop boulders for everyone. I have mainly been the leading charge for putting the information out there for everyone to enjoy and will continue to do so with everyone's help! I love to hear from people about their experience, especially if new boulders get developed! I would love for you to message me on Instagram (BrendanBaars). The guidebook for the area has been released and below you can find a link to buy it. In addition is video information on most of the climbs throughout the videos/youtube channels. INFORMATION: Guidebook https://www.ontarioclimbing.com/Guidebooks/the-nooks-bouldering/ This area located near the Eyeball multi-pitch climbing area includes very easy access with short approaches to big boulder fields. Found in 2018, the general area has the potential for thousands of problems from V0-Vpro. As of now we have established something like 170+ problems in the main area called the gold mine and is located off a paved road with a 3-minute approach. The boulders range from 10' to 30' with mostly good landings and the proximity being as good or better than LRC in Chattanooga. Virtually all the boulders are within 5 minutes of each other. It's like walking through a maze.

Olympic Crag in Al Shafa is the first professionally-developed sport climbing area in the Kingdom. Olympic is a homage to the future generations of climbers in Saudi Arabia. At 2,300m altitude and morning shade, Olympic Crag is a crag for all seasons. Weather changes fast in these mountains so it is advised to pack warm and for rain. The bullet golden granite with 38 routes from 4 to the 8th grade in both sport and trad styles at just 2.5 hours from Jeddah and 45 minutes from Taif Airport. The development of the work was funded by the Saudi Climbing Federation during the first phase of the Saudi Bolting Project. The trail, routes and base of the crag were created between November 1st and 12th, 2018 by a team led by the author, Read Macadam. More initiatives of the Saudi Climbing Federation can be found at climbing.sa Guide can be found at the link below. https://climbing.sa/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Olympic-Crag-Alshafa.pdf

it is possible to climb the Timber Lane boulder until the tide is at 2 metres though you will have to wade on your way out. You can check the tides for the area at this link: http://www.tides.gc.ca/eng/station?sid=7140 This boulder has excellent rock, and some classic climbs, generally ranging from moderates and above. The easiest descent route for the following lines is to chimney down the backside behind The Prow (~V4). It can seem scary the first time you do it.
