The Teton Boulder Park was completed in 2010. Since that time, more than 120 backer plates—the back-end fixtures for the climbing holds—have become cross-threaded, with bolts sheared off inside them. These backer plates can no longer be used for holds. As the majority of them are concentrated at the corners of the boulders, where holds are particularly important, this compromises the boulders’ functionality.
The TCC has been working to assist Parks and Rec with backer plate replacements. Due to staff shortages, Parks and Rec is unable to replace the backer plates without our help.
Let’s help Parks and Rec get the Boulder Park back up to full speed! Ping us at info@tetonclimbers.com to volunteer.
