Ascents in Powell River

Hard crux section at the top. I pumped out by trying to place too much gear below.

Easy jug fest

Top roped to get my gear back.

Excellent route! Great laybacks and fun moves. It was raining, so we just top roped.

Fun route! It was raining so we top roped.

Slightly tough layback start which led to easier jamming above. Fun! Raining so we top roped.

Powerful moves with what appears to be sparse but good gear. A challenging lead.

Fun!

Awkward transition to the roof. Quality route!

Fun jams and cool moves.

Technical lower down, then a finger shredder above!

Awkward chimney. Fun, though.

Excellent route! Goes up a challenging rail of slopers which made for poor feet and specific body positioning. Seems rather sandbagged for original grade of 5.9.

Another great route! Fun, with some reachy moves. Also seems a bit sandbagged at 5.9. Reminds me of some 10b climbs at Skaha.

Small sharp holds in the upper section make for a tough pitch. Unfortunately, I sliced my finger when a hold blew while making an undercling move. Seems like an excellent and worthwhile pitch!

Maybe the best 10 I’ve ever done
