Ascent NB is happy to present maps of the rock and ice climbing areas of New Brunswick. Click on climber icons projected on the great relief map to find area specific information. Check them out!

You can also find links to them in the menu above for quick reference.

A big thank you to Chris Nofork Norfolk for putting these two great resources together!

In hopes of answering questions about our vision and our reason for being, the Ascent NB executive penned this release...

This past weekend the two levels of executive met for the first time to discuss our plan moving forward.  As part of our effort to exist as transparently as possible, we will be posting all the minutes of meetings to the website.  Take a look if you are interested in what was discussed.

Joint Executive & Board Meeting Nov. 24, 2013

A big thank you to Steve MacLeod for designing our new logo!  Expect to see some tshirts in the coming year 😀

While our local forum is as good as it gets for finding local partners, here's a site dedicated to the task.  Seems like a good idea - wonder how it'll play out.

While it wasn't actually an Ascent NB event (next year it will be), the community's annual trail maintenance day went very well.  We did a good job up there, remediating the erosion issues on the Lower Dawn Wall approach trail, applying some drainage to the soggy section of the main trail just before you head uphill after the boardwalk section below Waterfall Wall, and setting up the lower trail to Exfoliated.

Thanks to Joey, Dom, Lauren, Marty, Pete Blight, Chris Nofork, Terry, Luc, Seb, Brent, Lenny, Ranger, and Ossa.  Feel like I'm forgetting somebody that was there... hopefully not!

Well hey we took our first official step the other weekend.  About 25 people from around the province came together and voted in our constitution and elected our executives.  A lot of concensus arose at the meeting and all seems very encouraging.  Details to come!
