Greg Hughes on Adopt Crag Program
Ascent New Brunswick is launching the Adopt Crag program. The purpose of the program is to help keep our climbing areas in good condition. In order to do that we need help from members of our climbing community. Our goal is to have at least one person assigned to each of the crags on the list below. Volunteers will carry out a list of duties. See below for the list. Larger crags like Cochrane Lane will need several people. If you would like to give back to the community and help in our efforts to maintain our climbing areas in good condition, please consider joining in this effort.
For more information or to sign up send us an email indicating which crag you would like to be a steward for.
List of crags:
- Cochrane Lane
- Sunnyside
- Eagle Rock
- Bear Mountain
