Bouldering grades
Climb Up has seven boulder levels. From easiest to hardest they are yellow, green, blue, purple, red, white and black. Climb Up doesn't publish Font equivalents, so the ranges below come from Kaskad Coaching's gym-by-gym colour table, which broadly agrees with a similar chart by Klimbr.
