The Bolted line in the Upper Papoose Wall

This is the first obvious route at the papoose.

P1 - 5.10b, 30m. Follow the left leaning crack and then go up under the bolt to a belay

P2 - 5.10c, 28m. Follow the hand crack up to the overlap, make a slabby face traverse (crux, 1 bolt) to the crack on the left. Climb up the crack to the belay.

P3 - 5.10b, 30m. Awkward flaring crack with bad fingerlocks (bolted) up to an awesome belay ledge with a tree (a few bolts, or climb the offwidth straight up). Don't stop here - go back left and up an easy 5m to a bolted belay.

Walk off climbers left or rappel off.

an alternative to the 5.6 runout traverse on Hairpin.

From the anchors before the traverse follow the bolt line straight up the slab and short headwall in front of you.

From p2 belay of Hairpin, traverse right along easy crack and over lip to an anchor (10m). Either belay here or continue straight up, crossing a crack and up the bolted slab. Continue up the easier runout ramp to the right at the top, or move left to an anchor and belay. If moving left, there is one more pitch of bolted 10a slab to the top.

P1 Start up Centerfold but break left on a foot traverse just before the first bolt. continue on this rail until you pass a bolted rap station (Optional belay) shortly after you will hit a vertical 1" crack leading up to a ledge with a belay station on the left.

P2 Step left from the anchors along a foot rail passing one bolt, at the second bolt head vertically up the wall to the roof. clip the bolts at the lip of the roof and traverse left on polished feet to the anchors for Hairpin.

P3 Traverse a rail to the right of the hairpin anchors to an airy belay on a small ledge.

P4 Follow the bolt line above the anchors to the slightly runout finish of Centrefold.

This 30m tall cliff is an extension of the routes established here in 2019. Including the popular 2 pitch outing Condo Crack. Sporting 15 routes ranging from 5.7 to 5.10 and a pleasant base area. Lots of morning sun, afternoon shade, and a quick 5-minute approach.

Standard Squamish Rack to 3"

All routes, excluding Condo Crack can be climbed with a 60m rope.

Condo Crack requires a walk off, or 70m rope

The first few routes on the right side are a full 30m long, so tie a knot in the end of your rope!
