New Routes 2010

From ScottishClimbs

Jump to: navigation, search

Add here any new routes you or your mates put up in Scotland, be they boulder problems or mountain routes, any grade too. The idea is to create list of routes like at the back of guidebooks but up to date. Please stick to the same editing format which uses tables. Just copy and paste the previous row and change the info. Keep the table in order so that the most recent routes are at the top.

For other years, see New Routes.
