Description

North East facing cliff near Emerald Lake. Single Pitch Sport Routes from the old 'retired' highway road. Perfect for hot summer days! Emerald Lake is a bit cool, but makes for a refreshing swim after a great day of climbing!!

Getting There

Drive along Hwy 3 towards Crowsnest Lake. Turn South off Hwy 3 when you see the lake at the Peaks Campus then take a right down a gravel road instead of left to the Campus. Follow the gravel road for about 500m where it turns back into a paved road for another 1.5km to a parking lot at the end of the road. Climbs less than a 1 minute walk from the parking lot!
