Summary

Laurentides' most beautiful cracks on a slab. Remote and quiet.

Description

Opened around 2018, a 40-45m multi-pitch wall with four routes only accessible from the top. Great for top rope with top belaying. The bottom of the area can be only access by bushwalking from a trail, and bushwalking is forbidden in the area. Apparently not part of FQME, so you're on you're own. Crag is remote and rarely visited. Cellular signal is good on top of the crag.

Access issues

The northern part of the previous Montagne Verte Loop, after the crag, seems now to be a private property with forbidden access. Fortunately, entering private property is not required to access the crag. You will however have to walk past a "Stay on trails" sign and follow the older path towards the north. There are no signs stating that climbing is forbidden at this place (2023).

Approach

To access the area, you must follow the Montagne Verte loop and use the crest trail which is at the east of the return trail. Expect a 20-30 min walk from the parking. From the parking, head east and stick east for the crest loop at the first crossing about 100m from the parking. Walk north on the trail until it turns west to the left and you encounter a "Stay in trails" sign. Instead of going west keep going to the north for 20 m past the sign, and look for pink ribbons placed on trees along the way. This will take you to the top of the crag in about five minutes. Having a phone with the GPS coordinates entered is very helpful. A proper app/Garmin with hiking trails also simplifies the approach.
