Description

Maybe the best "hard hard" area in Canada? A very good collection of 5.14s, 5.13s and a beautiful wall. If you climb this grade you already know about this beauty. Visited and bolted by such names as Lev Pinter, Josh Muller, Joe Kinder, Dave Graham, Sonnie Trotter, Alex Megos, Adam Ondra, Jonathan Siegrist and many more. The icebox is the place to be!

Getting There

Get to lower wall and hike up. The wall is met at the very end of it's left side and continues far to the right.
