ive been in Revie here for a little while climbing a bunch. Ive hit up most of the areas within the guide, and was wondering if any one has been working on any other crags, or where i might find some good new route potential. Thank you

I’ve heard of a large granite boulder field somewhere in Glacier National Park - where I’m not sure. Was on this site a few years back.

Given the proximity to the Bugs (as the crow flies) and other granitic formations north, chances are very good for some quality craggin.

good map:

let us know if you find something!

I heard that new logging roads make Frigg Tower and other parts of the Gold Range daytrippable…

I have heard that their are some good multi pitch routes behind 3 valley gap.  I have not climbed these myself but have talked to some people that have.  Also their are numerous large looking crags on the road between revy and sicamouse.  Hope that helps.

New routing is happening at several crags.  Blanket having the most prolific, recent additions.  A few new at Begbie as well.  In regards to Frigg, there’s really good potential in that part of the Gold range - multipitch granite (not *quite* the Bugs).  And it is day-trippable, but a very long day and be prepared for mega bushwhacking (alder, devil’s club) and grizzlies.
As a side note, I’ve heard of some sporty development going on at Sicamous, anybody have any beta for that area?
