Routes in Lake Lakit

So the 3rd of 4th bolt has actually ripped out of the roof and doesn't exist anymore. Good work route builders

Climb the obvious crack on gear and end up at the chain of its neighbour.

Dyno, Big jugs, slopers another route that has everything

Start on Moustache Stampede then go to the right when you see the roof.

Go up Moustache Stampede then go to the left at the end for a amazing extension and great rock

Start on moon shine then head out to right right after the roof!

A few fun techy, moves with bad feet get you into the huge flake. Watch the rat shit above

Climb the crack. Really fun

(Originally graded 5.13d, but has since been down graded in the 'East Kootenay Rocks guide book, 2021 edition.)

Super fun technical climbing involving some sequential movement to a crux at the last bolt and a spicey finish.

A lot of powerful climbing for 8m's. Contrived holds and pockets with the drill. (Originally graded 5.11b, but has since been down graded in the 'East Kootenay Rocks guide book, 2021 edition.)

Try not to swear as you climb past terrible rock on good holds. Above the ledge attains better rock

The variation out right of Air Mail, still incorporating 2 epic dynos!!

Awesome climbing on the right side of the Arête!

Climbs the arête on very sloppered pockets and guess what, sloppers! . Has a few desperate moves right off the ledge and a lot of tension all the way to the next ledge! Finishes on the 5.11a next door. Watch the hard crux clip and keep some gas for the final crux above that clip. Pure power endurance and stiff AF for the grade

Start as Return To Sender but head left after the 2nd bolt. Powerful pulls up a short steep wall. Pumpy finish to!

Check out the cool pictographs around this climb. Ancient rock art for sure! Probably the most sort out of 5.12 in the Columbias! And for good reason. Giant slopper jugs get you into a super cool powerful sequence. Have a quick shake on the traverse, then fire another Crux on awesome crimps. Pumpy for 13m's high! Named air mail for a reason, catch the big moves or take air!

(Originally graded 5.12c, but has since been down graded in the 'East Kootenay Rocks guide book, 2021 edition.)

The route right of Bubble Wrap. Same style except with smaller holds

This great route features the most bubbley sloppered jugs around that slowly make your forearms extremely fat! Enjoy the crux down low and then again at the last bolt! Classic

Newer line going all the way to the top of the cliff. Nice alpine style line.

A great technical climb with a good but tricky finish!

Take a walk through a forest of jugs and sloppered buckets until you set up camp on the massive ledge. In the morning enjoy the beauty crack (slot) to a sensational finish.

Start as per Stick It In The Slot but branch left after the massive ledge. Stellar climbing up to an in your face crux! Classic

Another contrived route. Stay directly on the bolt line that goes on the arête. If you are off the arête it's more like 10c/d up the face.

Everyone's favourite warm up. Climbs up the fun jugs, crimps and sidepulls to a short and fun crux up higher. If only it was longer...

Such a contrived route. TBH it should have its bolt cut as it squeezed in way to close to the neighbours. Apparently it climbs without any use of the jugs out right which are right close to the bolts. Stay very closely to the bolt line. Powerful crimps up the face. Short and soft

Originally graded 5.12c, but has since been down graded in the 'East Kootenay Rocks guide book, 2021 edition.

Climbs the fun flake of Illict engagement (3 bolts) then crosses into the top 3 bolts of Code Yellow. Great way to get up to the ledge for the beauty climbs above.

Originally graded 5.13a, but has since been down graded in the 'East Kootenay Rocks guide book, 2021 edition.

Short but packs an absolute punch. Climbs the steepest part of this sector up a very thin crack. Pure power endurance with a tough as nails mantel above. Easy climbing to finish.

Balance and technique will get you up this great route. Watch out for the cheeky mantel !

This beauty route has everything. A fun flake into big moves on sloppers. A hard crux on a very tiny crimp, into more powerful climbing and a great, fun finish. A Lakit classic for sure.

Busts the roof above G.I Joe. Powerful!

Stiff for the grade but maybe it's time you get used to sloppers!

Absolute rat shit (literally) all around the anchor and the mantel move to it. Yuck
