Fourth bolted line moving left to right. Neat little stemming section to the first clip & easy climbing to the top. Stem through a cool chimney to start, once through the chimney scram- ble up an easy thin low angle ramp along a good crack to the top.

5.8 | ★★ Soft on Soft
Follow the black streak directly up and slightly left, staying left of bolt line. We should have named this one bolt ladder!

British Columbia Vancouver Island Nanaimo and the Mid-Island Nanaimo River Sunny Side Lower Deck | |||||
5.8 | Shoe Fly-by
The right facing bolted dihedral near the right end of the wall. The last route to dry on this wall, seeping most of the year. This corner is also the garbage chute for the cliff above, so you’ll likely need to clean as you climb. Rescrubbed Sept/23. FA: Greg Sorensen | 8m, 3 | |||
5.8 | ★ Butterscotch Puddin’
A hidden gem of a trad climb. Delicately come out from under the starting overhang and follow a finger width corner crack that takes gear well. The top tends to be gritty due to runoff from the upper climbing ledge. FA: Jody Bernst | 13m | |||
5.8 | Spring Fling
