Title: Arran bouldering topos
Post by: edshakey on September 08, 2021, 05:26:35 pm

Anyone got any links to topos for some of the bouldering on Arran? I'm piecing stuff together from ukc but any sort of guide would obviously simplify this greatly.

I noticed Thomnomnom moderates some crags, so maybe he's the person to ask?

Here is a link to a little guide put together by Stone Country.

Yes, I moderate a couple of the crags but mostly because I wanted to add a couple "wishlist" problems that are scantily documented elsewhere. One is The Sorting Hat, a 7B+ from Greg Chapman in Fionn Coire and the other is Vertigo, a Tom Charles Edwards 7B in Coire nan Ceum. I haven't been on either though.

There's a good topo for Ceum (and a pic of Vertigo, just labelled as a project prow) in the most recent Boulder Scotland. The Sorting Hat is probably mentioned as a project in the pdf topo above (possibly the prow on boulder 7). There's a picture on Greg's insta (https://www.instagram.com/p/Bj7Ly8iDJmJ/). Enjoy!
