    #TIL that these are called a #volume in #bouldering. In bouldering, there are #paths, which are well-designed #climbing routes, to practice specific skills used in bouldering. In a bouldering gym, a path is built with plastic elements called volumes. This volume is part of a path made for kids, and has the shape of an elephant in a #cartoon #style.EXIT: Not a volume but a grip! (See reply to this for details - thanks @codebyjeff )

This unique vegetation often consists of (locally) rare species with very patchy distribution"
