Vie in Castlegar

Very fun slab climbing with a cool stemmy crux above the 5th bolt Beautiful rock up higher on this one!

There may only be a single bolt at the top of P2 (no anchors yet).

Often climbed as a top rope.

Stay in the corner climbing left for pitch 3.

The right route on the slab just left of the big corner. Cool easy stemming at the bottom then a thoughtful crux above the midway ledge. Bolted with a beginner lead climber in mind so should be approachable for everyone.

Shares an anchor with 'This Way' and "Pilot's Crack".

Climb to the right up the left-facing corner for the 3rd pitch.

Fun sport route on the left side of the apron. Climb through discontinuous cracks and flakes to a balancy finish.

Shared anchor with 'Black Arrow' and "Pilot's Crack".

1. 5 bolts

2. 9 bolts

1. Climb the crack to the left of pitch 1 of 'Hail Mary'.

2. Same as 'Hail Mary'.

3. Cut right to the steep angled crack.

Climbs the featured slab and crack just right of Stash in the Attic to the roof, then turns the roof on surprisingly good jugs and heads up the left side of the arete above. Extend the draw on the left side under the roof to reduce rope drag, and consider cleaning on rappel as there are some sharp spots where the rope runs.

The obvious left-leaning crack. Finishes with a leftward traverse.

Starts up a dihedral with a crack at the back, then transitions to a broken arete higher up.

Shares an anchor with 'Rash Decision'.

Climb up the corner past two bolts, trending right until on top of a ledge, then back left again to a steep finish below the bolted anchor.

WKRG gives this a grade of 5.7 -- that's a solidly old-school 5.7. Gear is not plentiful -- you want to be a confident leader at a couple grades above that to lead this one.

Starts at the end of 'Double Bubble' & 'Double Overhang'.

Start at the ledge. A bit of a choose-your-own-adventure to the top of the cliff. No obvious anchor -- but can traverse left at the end to the anchors for "Gentle Shist".

Right of 'The Koosh' up the black vein.

Two bolts between 'Bar Star' and 'Deep Fried Pickles'
