Ascents in Powell River

Fun jams and cool moves.

Awkward transition to the roof. Quality route!

Awkward chimney. Fun, though.

Technical lower down, then a finger shredder above!

Fun!

Powerful moves with what appears to be sparse but good gear. A challenging lead.

Slightly tough layback start which led to easier jamming above. Fun! Raining so we top roped.

Fun route! It was raining so we top roped.

Excellent route! Great laybacks and fun moves. It was raining, so we just top roped.

Top roped to get my gear back.

Easy jug fest

Hard crux section at the top. I pumped out by trying to place too much gear below.

Small sharp holds in the upper section make for a tough pitch. Unfortunately, I sliced my finger when a hold blew while making an undercling move. Seems like an excellent and worthwhile pitch!

Another great route! Fun, with some reachy moves. Also seems a bit sandbagged at 5.9. Reminds me of some 10b climbs at Skaha.

Excellent route! Goes up a challenging rail of slopers which made for poor feet and specific body positioning. Seems rather sandbagged for original grade of 5.9.

Maybe the best 10 I’ve ever done
