Name this climb -- if you can even see it

[squamish climber]

This is a relatively new route but obviously it hasn't been climbed in a while. I took this picture while out cragging at Smoke Bluffs last weekend.


Here's a hint, it was in the vicinity of this crag

beached whale @ ferrets folly?

No, but like Beached Whale, this route is rated two stars in the Bourdon guide.

"Dru" will know. For sure. I’d bet twenty carabiners on it.

the photo looks like the 10a rumours? to the left of fatty bolger, right of jug slab. no idea what the photo of moss is, could be the north side of a trailer on govt rd.

Close enough, admittedly the photo isn't very good. I took the photo from the top looking down. I think that's one of the top anchor bolts you can just see sticking out of the moss. The climb is Robin's Route, 5.10c , four bolts plus gear. Here's the description from the Bourdon guide: "A very short climb is located on the face below the belay area for Jug Slab"  Robin Beach-03)

Too bad, it's a good route under the moss. More like 11a than 10c and according to Fern (who put it up) its name is "Little My" not "Robins Route".

Robin scrubbed and belayed.

I just can’t believe how bloody thick that stuff is. I’ve seen routes grow back fast but never that thick. Reminds me of some women I see around...

There are a couple of areas in the bluffs where moss grows at unbelievable rates. The cliffs along the stairs stairs by Pixie Corner/Digital Dexterity are probably the worst. Shade and moistness make for moss incubators.
