i just thought i would alert you all to a batch of boulders that desires to be climbed, indeed are calling out, the fields of boulders are calling, for you to climb them all.
the town of Ignace has sponsored this bid, that i am letting you know about now, to host you at their boulder field.
if you were to think now- how is this possible, that from far away someone asks me to go climb at their boulders? what kind of people would make such an invitation? i.e. to climb at their town's boulders, in the middle of their blueberry field? (actually, there are raspberries and saskatoons too.) to give you some kind of indication of the sort of people you're dealing with, a camp full of Junior Rangers (they are supremely awesome, just for calling themselves the Junior Rangers, and for all their hard work) spent last summer clearing paths amongst the boulders, tending back the pine forest that is regrowing around them. so really- come check this out. it is halfway across canada, right near the middle of a drive from out east to the rockies. it is like an oasis. worth stopping by and bumming around here for awhile. for the white, quarry-quality granite.
best time is late july, early august:
