Description Suggest change

This much neglected 20 - 25 m high crag was in serious need of a makeover - the original routes (dating from 2001) were in a very scruffy state; most had substandard anchors and all were equipped with carbon steel bolts. The anchors of all the original routes have been upgraded and at the time of writing all, except routes 7 and 13, have been re-cleaned and equipped with stainless steel bolts. There are also 4 ½ new routes.
From L to R:
Weakened Warrior* 11c 7 bolts Rolf Rybak 2018.
Carpet Cleaner** 10b 8 bolts. Rolf Rybak 2018. Better and harder than it looks. Sustained.
Project (Rolf Rybak).
BC Parks*** 11b 9 bolts. Robin Barley FA John Fantini. 2001/04 Excellent!
True Yellow** 11b 10 bolts. Alt (easier) start to True Blue. Jon Jones 2018. Starts just right of BC Parks and follow grey hangers to join True Blue at the 6th bolt.
True Blue ** 11c 10 bolts. John Fantini 2001/07. A hard start is followed by great (and much easier) climbing above the horizontal break. Some creaky holds
Brindabella Way** 12a 9 bolts. John Fantini 2001/04.
Blind Alley 10a 4 bolts. The name says it all. A very short warm-up. Jon Jones 2019/07.
Roo-bar** 11d 9 bolts. John Fantini 2001/03. A burly start, then keep on crimpin'!
Rather Off-White*** 11d 10 bolts. John Fantini 2001/03. Seductive left-leaning crack line. Sustained!
Rather Jolly Actually *** 11a 10 bolts. Robin Barley 2001/06. Branches right from RO-W at the horizontal break.
No Gear Fear Here* 10d. Obvious crack (trad). Robin Barley & Howie Richardson 2002/10.
The Deceiver 11c 7 bolts. John Fantini 2001/03. Still quite dirty.
Forgive Us Our Trespasses** 10+, 10 bolts. Jon Jones 2019/07. Squeezed in and in places contrived, but good, climbing at a more moderate grade than its neighbour to the left. Much easier (but not as much fun) if you traverse right to finish. Same start as Wysiwyg.
Wysiwyg** 5.8, 9 bolts. Jon Jones 2019/07. Start on easy left- trending ramp. Go hard right at horizontal beak and climb the blunt arête.

Getting There Suggest change

Take the path just below the upper parking lot past Daycare and Diamondback. When you hit Elusive Edge, take the left path until you see a sign for a toilet by Go-Anywhere. You can also hit this toilet by going right past Elusive Edge, hiking up to Great White, then walking across the talus field. Go up past the toilet to the top of the hill, head right until you see a faint path turn into an obvious one. Little White will soon be on your right. Continue past Little White until you hit a broken, unclean section of rock; just past this is Off White.
