Draw Clean Topos on Real Cliff Photos
Sketch route paths directly on high-resolution wall photos with a GPU-accelerated vector canvas that stays fast and responsive when zooming in on small cruxes.
- Smart Point Sampling: Sketch lines freehand with automatic touch-jitter filtering that creates clean, spaced control handles.
- Control Point Handles: Drag individual vertices to perfectly match cruxes, clipping stances, and natural rock features.
- Climbing Stamps: Place dedicated markers for bolts, belay anchors, and directional rappel stations with a single tap.
- Calibrated Palettes & Text: Choose from 10 rock-contrast swatches, 3 line weights, and multiline text callouts with full undo/redo safety.
Dual Catalog Architecture
Organize Local Crags & Connected Catalogs
Seamlessly combine your own locally authored crags with official databases like TABVAR without cluttering your phone with unwanted data.
- My Crags (Local Workspace): Build and document new crags with 1-tap export, sector organization, and instant topo updates.
- Connected Crags (TABVAR): Access over 100 official crags with verified sectors, route counts, and grades.
- Workspace Topo Tracking: Quickly identify how many topos are in your workspace and spot unmapped lines ready for photos.
- Instant Crag Search: Filter across all sectors and routes in seconds, even while standing offline at the base of the wall.
100% Offline Crag Safety
Report Hardware Hazards Directly at the Crag
Deep canyons and remote cliffs have zero cellular reception. Bolted runs an embedded SQLite database directly on your phone so you never lose a safety report.
- Granular Hardware Breakdown: Report missing hangers, loose nuts, outdated rusted hardware, spinning glue-ins, or loose anchor studs.
- Community Lifecycle: Track reports from Reported to Mark resolved as route maintainers install new hardware.
- Automatic Outbox Sync: Photos and issue logs queue locally and sync cleanly in idempotent batches when back in signal.

Made by a TABVAR Volunteer for climbers and route developers everywhere
Bolted was created by a volunteer with TABVAR (The Association of Bow Valley Rockclimbers), the non-profit organization responsible for replacing aging bolts and upgrading fixed climbing hardware across the Canadian Rockies.
The app is and always will be 100% free. No subscriptions, no ads, and no paywalls. It exists solely to give route developers precision tools and give climbers a direct line to keep crags safe.
Want to say thanks? The best way to support this free app is by donating directly to TABVAR to fund replacement bolts and hardware across our climbing areas.
