Routes in Banff for selected grade

Starts under a small roof, trending up a left facing corner. Balancey, face-climbing ends at a larger roof. Bring the thunder, and storm above, keeping calm to clip the anchor under the next sizeable roof.

Work your way up a right facing corner to a small tricky bulge on excellent rock. Continue up to anchors just right of a right facing corner.

Route starts to the right of a little cave about 50m left of Gooseberry. Beware of loose rock. This is a fantastic route with each pitch being better than the last. Bring a lot of quickdraws if you intend to combine pitches.

1. 30m of 5.9 climbing up a loose-ish corner to a belay.

2. 20m of 10a trending right through a small corner and bulge to belay.

3. 25m of solid 10d/11a climbing straight up leads to a ledge. This pitch is well protected and the crux can be aided or French freed if need be.

4. 30m 10a. Keep left (Gooseberry is on the right) and and follow the bolts on up.

5. 40m 5.9. Traverse left to a steep roof protected by bolts. There is one fixed piton but no need to clip it. Stem the roof and head up the slab, up and then right past a pair of bolts to the second pair of anchor bolts. There will be one pair of bolts to your left and a chain about 10m to your right.

6. 30m of hard 10c/d follows the line of bolts up and right. Keep a lookout for small key holds and trust your feet. Pitch ends on a hanging belay on a detached block .

7. 20m of 5.8 climbing. Step right off the block and follow the bolts up. This pitch is easier than it looks however it is very exposed. Head on up to chains.

8. 30m 10b. Move left from the chains and blindly traverse past three bolts, making a few burly moves to pull over a bulge. Follow the bolts up through chert bands to chains. Belay your follower further up to gain the hikers trail to the carpark.

Further hikers left from Personal Pleasure Wave, is two routes on a Chalky wall above industrial playground. Winterfell is the route climbing left. A balancey slab move gains a a face climb. Another balancey move gains a gaston to crimp to undercling in the "hole" of the wall. Climber constantly climbs to the left of the bolts and a few long draws help.

From the top of the moss ledge, slopery steam Crux in your face! Another mini Crux gains the small ledge under the roof. Positive holds on the roof! Enjoy the beauty chert band ontop. Great quality

Branches out from Pushing the envelope after the mini Crux gaining the small ledge under the roof. Beauty chert band above.

Pull the super fun roof, into a intricate technical section. Long climbing on amazing chert band to finish it.

The problem to the left of the front. Has the other broken boulders as a base. Not really a recommended route but who's to say what some enjoy. Has a fun move from the V shaped slopery pinch up to the slopery/crimp U shaped.
