Problem/Purpose Statements

So through much deliberation, my Problem/Purpose Statements have been finalized.

Problem Statement:
Resources pertaining to the basic principles of route-setting - the act of designing climbing movement through the arrangement of artificial holds - are rare and unreliable, making it difficult for new route-setters to learn proper techniques.

Purpose Statement:
The purpose of this study was to identify a necessary source of basic route-setting principles available to beginning route-setters at Planet Granite in San Francisco.
