Ascents in West Kootenays

Thin moves but a good climb.

The guide topo doesn't seem correct.also The grades on this and LLL could be swapped

Cool bouldery moves down low, followed by good slab above.

Very nice climb up to after the crux pitch. The Rock gets chossy and route finding is hard on the last 3 pitches (follow the flakes). There's a spooky runout on pitch 4. Exposure the whole way up!

Lives up to the hype.

Interesting moves up the nose if you are too short to bridge

awesome moves including a pocket in the old drill holes.

Good moves up high

Corner was quite slippery, but was getting over 30 degrees by then

If you like stemmy corners, this is a must do!

Fun climb, with some good lay-backs.

Awesome sequence climbing in the dihedral.

Stout little warm up, feels more like 10c in my opinion.

Wanted to do this ever since I saw it 3 years ago, and if anything it's even better than I'd imagined! A moderate multipitch in an amazing location on amazing rock, with real climbing on practically every pitch! The move around the roof on pitch 8 is awesome.

One of the best - definitely a highlight of my climbing career. The location is stunning, the rock is bomber from start the finish, the view around the right if the arête is so amazingly airy. All natural with natural belays, a couple of pins here and there. A must do!

Good warm-up!

Wow! What a beautiful, aesthetic route and pleasurable climb. It starts off with a wonderfully curving crack and then every pitch after is really enjoyable. Some thoughtful gear on pitch 3 but otherwise plentiful opportunities. Great rock throughout. The roof pitch higher up is enjoyable and really cool with the exposure. This was Bec's first big alpine rock climb and she definitely stepped up to the plate. She got through 90% of the first pitch before having to sit on the rope and didn't quite stick the roof sequence, but otherwise sent everything else. Super proud of her efforts and stoke on the day. Deservingly classic and keen to come back to explore some of the other routes on this beautiful piece of rock.

Great long warm up

Fun route. Kinda hard pull on the roof and fun slab afterwards.

Lots of bad feet, slopers and mantles

Reminiscent of materialistic prostitution at Frog Buttress Same grade too haha

Lead all the pitches.

If you go into pitch 5 thinking it will be 5.8 the way pitch 1 was 5.8, well, you'll be in for a shock.

Felt soft for 5.8.
