Some of the best limestone in Canada. Face climbing on a perfect, gentley overhung wall.
This picturesque, Ceuse-resembling wall hosts some of the best limestone found In the Bow Valley. The climbing, is sequential, cryptic, technical and powerful. Strong foot work is rewarded. The rock is very grippy, perfect water-worn limestone with beautiful streaks from bottom to top of the 30m wall. Routes range from Open 5.14 project far left to shorter 18m bouldery climbs on black rock far right. The views are absolutely stunning, of a full 360 down the valley. If heaven is real, this is a small slice of it.
