Description

The awesome face visible from anywhere in Castlegar.
Much of this rock is partly or entirely on private property - respect this.
Whats up for grabs is here.

Getting There

From Castlegar, follow signs to Robson. Cross the river and head west towards the lions head pub. If you stop for a bevy then, you'll find the "pub wall" at the parking lot. On the Western most end of the wall you'll find all the recently developed sport and trad climbing. Access this off the end of Horkoff Rd.
