Springfield Boulders Adopt a Crag

Join the Mid Atlantic Climbers for a trail day at the Springfield Boulders! The primary focus of this project graffiti removal using Elephant Snot, scrubbing the paint with provided brushes, and using a pressure washer to remove the paint & product. We will be using a dropcloth to prevent runoff into the nearby stream. We will also be picking up trash around the crag and creek and removing broken glass from the ground below the boulders. Because this is a graffiti project, wear clothing you don’t mind getting dirty in. We recommend long pants and long sleeves, as some volunteers have reported minor skin irritation due to prolonged skin contact with the graffiti removal product we will be using. We provide all PPE (goggles, gloves, masks) but if you have your own working gloves in your preferred size, please bring them along.

For all Adopt a Crag events, please keep in mind the following:

  • Wear closed toed shoes. Long sleeves and pants are recommended.

  • Bring water, snacks, and extra layers for the elements.

  • Be prepared to be challenged, work hard, and gain sending karma points!
