A Crag Guide gives an extensive view of all sub areas and climbs at a point in the index. It shows a snapshot of the index heirachy, up to 300 climbs (or areas) on a single web page. It shows selected comments climbers have made on a recently submitted ascent.
At a minor crag level this should be suitable for printing and taking with you on a climbing trip as an adjunct to your guidebook.

설명
The Big Eddy is a small climbing crag situated next to the Stellako River. There are a total of nine developed routes of moderate grades offering a nice mix of climbing styles. The rock is made up of exfoliating (on both a macro and micro level) coarse pink granite. There are many large flake systems that could be released with the right trigger. All users should keep this in mind. This crag is especially nice on a hot summer day as the swimming in the river is excellent. It is also worth a visit in the fall to observe the spectacle of the spawning sockeye salmon.
접근
Drive west on hwy 16 to about 2 km west of the community of Fraser Lake. Turn left on to Francois Lake Road and drive approximately 5 km. At the apex of a sweeping left bend in the road look for a small dirt road exiting off the right bank. Go 100 m down this road and park in a small clearing being sure to leave room for other users. Walk down the right fork (drive if you have high clearance vehicle) for another 100 m to a clearing. Look for a trail leaving the clearing on the left back corner. Follow the trail for about 20 minutes generally keeping right at intersections until the crag becomes visible on your left. From the top of the crag scramble down on skiers left and traverse back to the base of the routes on your right. The first route you will pass is # 9, You Otter Climb This.

Back Ferry Left
A nice warm up route. | 5.6 | ||||||

Back Ferry Right
Another nice warm up route | 5.5 | ||||||
3 |
Bye Bye Sockeye
A tricky climb. Tree anchor. | 5.10a | ||||||
4 |
★ Big Fish Small Pond
A nice climb that protects very well. Back stepping off the block to your right at the crux lowers the grade a notch. | 5.8 | ||||||
5 |
★★ Catch and Release
Another nice climb with a variety of climbing. Try to avoid using the big flake to the left of the splitter finishing crack. The anchor is set quite far back to force leaders to make the final top out moves. The bolt lower down on the route is intended as a TR directional, not leader protection. | 5.9 | 1 | |||||
6 |
★★★ The Captain
Two bolts. Likely the most popular route at the crag. For TR purposes be sure to put a directional on the upper bolt. | 5.9 | 2 | |||||
7 |
Deliverance
Four bolts. A great route up the face and prow. Has its own anchor on the face at top of prow. | 5.10 | 4 | |||||
8 |
A River Runs to it
An OK that doesn’t get done often. Shares the anchor (on top of prow) with The Captain. | 5.7 | ||||||
