The latest new route update is now available - just in time for May long weekend.
Includes new routes - at Doctors', Overly Hanging Out, Little White, Diamondback - as well as the usual route info updates.
Apologies that the new update on the downloads page has a couple of missing images - I'm having a few issues uploading the corrected version to the downloads database! In the meantime, grab it directly from:
http://www.skaha.org/New_Routes_May2011v2.pdf.
I'd advice downloading the file locally before trying to display - there seem to be issues with at least one image if you don't download the file first. Hopefully, these issues will be resolved within the week.
Have a great spring.

Sign Vandalism at the Bluffs

Sometime during the last week of September, somebody spray painted 27 of the new signs installed this year by BC Parks. The culpritl(s) remain unknown, but this is not the first time that this has occurred - the signs installed when the toilets were originally built were also sprayed over in a very similar way.
This blatant act of vandalism reflects badly on the users of Skaha Bluffs, the majority of whom are climbers. Let us hope that this is not the action of anyone from the climbing community.
Note that the replacement cost for the signs is estimated at ~$1000, monies that could have gone toward other Bluffs projects.
