★★ Into Darkness V12

The problem start at the back of the dihedral where you have to do a big first move to a 1 finger crack pinch. After that You have to bring your feet up and bump your left hand to a bad pinch (the Crux) Then you have do another big move with the left to a undercling and work your feet out of the dihedral. I then cam my left foot on a good edge and go full extention on a good edge with the left hand. You then finish the climb on some good and easier climbing to the left.

NEW ROUTE DEVELOPMENT IS NOT ALLOWED. DON'T DO IT.

The Eardley Escarpment is contained in Gatineau Park, managed by the National Capital Commission (NCC). The NCC has closed climbing at all but a few of the crags. As of 2011, only Home Cliff (main corner area and rightwards to Piton Highway), Western Cwm (left or western side), the Twin Ribs (Copa Cabana and Down Under), and Eastern Block are open for climbing.

Cliff-top access is permitted only at Home Cliff and Western Cwm, at other crags climbs must be climbed from ground up.

The NCC, land-managers for Gatineau park, have a history of changing their web-page layout making direct-linking risky. As of fall 2018, their statement on climbing is available at: http://ncc-ccn.gc.ca/places/rock-climbing

While the origins of the closure was ecological sensitivity for the Eardley Escarpment (which is on the southern flank of the park), and originated as specific closures in that area, the current phrasing is a list of permitted areas within the park, meaning anything not in that list is, by omission, not open to climbing.

No new development or bolting allowed. Strong tradition of leaving trad routes trad, even if badly run-out.
