Layer: Bouldering Areas (ID: 5)

Name: Bouldering Areas

Display Field: Boulder_Name

Type: Feature Layer

Geometry Type: esriGeometryPolygon

Description: This dataset includes boulders within approximately 100-125 meters of S.R. 210 in Little Cottonwood Canyon, Utah. It was created by the Salt Lake Climbers Alliance during the LCC DEIS phase in June 2021 to understand bouldering impacts of the alternatives and to assist with public outreach. Features were digitized from a georeferenced map (JPEG image) showing boulder footprints within 100-125 meters of the road. The range of distance from the road was due to the nature of the source map, which depicted boulders within 100 meters of the road but used a "fade" effect on the footprints at the edge of the buffer rather than a hard stop, resulting in some features being visible outside of the intended buffer range.Boulder names were mostly derived from the source map image, but in some cases different names were chosen if there was a discrepancy between the source map and existing climbing guidebooks or Mountain Project. Some boulders have multiple commonly-used names, so some discrepancies between name sources is expected.The field "HasClimbing" attempts to capture which boulders are known to be used for climbing recreation. The SLCA determined that not all boulder footprints shown in the source map have known climbing recreation, so this was an attempt to distinguish priority boulders from non-priority boulders. However, bouldering in the canyon is always changing, and boulders that are not indicated with this field may still be used by some recreationists for personal climbing projects, or may have been developed as climbing sites in the time since the last guidebook was created.
