Description
A gem of BC climbing. Very well-maintained crag with 200+ primarily mixed (i.e., trad with a few bolts here and there) single-pitch routes, with some sport and aid routes thrown in. Its distance from any decent-sized city ensures serene and uncrowded surroundings for climbers. There is a new colour guidebook out (Summer 2017). Developed by The Heathens since the 1980's.
