Routen in Black Feather Canyon

The open project steepest route out of the Wave on the right side . Ground breakingly ard

Great boulder problem start to interesting corner climbing to top. This is the powerful looking line to the left of Carnal Prayer Mat or Open Projext number 12 in the Bow Valley sport.

Left of V-man.

A tough low percentage throw right off the ground leads to easier but still tricky climbing into a v shaped notch. Navigate around some bird crap to reach the base of the roof. Take a couple of deep breaths before powering through a hard to read roof sequence.

Left of Free Hook up. Start this excellent climb with a very reachy boulder out of the roof (where the route gets its name from) and fire hard up the V notch. From here long moves on all kinds of grips has a cool roof encounter then a decent rest. Change gears and get your tech on very high quality rock up the dark corner to anchors up high. Will be a classic over time!

The extension above “La Nouille Technique” has a very powerful boulder problem straight off the anchor. Sustained technical climbing with long pulls escalate up the bullet, black head wall to an anchor high on the wall. Qui Vivra Verra means “He/she who lives, shall see.” This phrase is used when an outcome is unpredictable or uncertain.

Scramble up the right trending ramp to reach the base and then tackle a beautiful orange streak out the middle of the wall. long draws help on the first two bolts.

Start slightly chossy rock leads to difficult climbing up the overhanging arête above.

This cool looking line forges up the overhanging blue streak to bona fide tufas in the break. A thin and technical Crux leads through an otherwise blank looking section of rock.

Launch into a series of small overlaps. Tough for the grade but an absolute classic.

Climb through a scoop and onto a vertical face. Trend left to anchors under the big Roof.

Awesome climb! Gradually becomes more overhung leading into a narrow slot. Definitely has a nice variety of technical and physical challenges. ENJOY!

Tackles the centre of the brain like patch of rock. Follow a blue streak up a small arête to anchors in the right facing corner.

Start on the Bv’s best 12B, Carnal Prayer Mat doing the smooth stout start. At the 6th bolt ((use a bloody long sling) also the no hands rest of CPM)) traverse out left until in the No-Hands rest of Free Hook Up (also use a very long sling). Finish up in the funky technica corner of FHU. Combines the two easier sections of both routes for a technical joy ride.

Dream bigger and fire over the Roof to a boulder problem, above the anchor of Delicate Sound Of Thunder (Use long-slings around roofs and back clean DSOT’s anchor). From here, embark on a journey of tech/power climbing of varieties to the top of Rainbow Wall. A 70m rope just makes it to the ground from the top.

The extension to Sweet.

The extension of Project b. Still needs cleaning

(under review) edit Start on Mind Dead. Climb the great start to the 4th bolt (the no hands rest which leads Right) and climb the better section of Brain Dead. Excellent link up with no rope drag as the routes are very close to one another.

Same difficulty as the two 11d neighbours. A powerful crimpy start, leads to fun technical climbing. A burly finish is required to clip the chains!

A cool Bouldery start gets you to a nohands rest. Crank the beauty roof on sensational holds! Great quality and a must do of the crag.

Left of “Delicate Sound Of Thunder” begins this adventurous route, starting on solid slab.

The far left route starting on slab. Looks dirty and not sure how much has been cleaned....but has been redpointed...

A powerful finish on big underclings!

Link up. Start on Tree Enema climb the crux over the bulge. Once above put a long sling on and traverse right into the roof of Edge Grinder and up to finish on its Anchor. A short lived 11b crux into half of another 11b/c crux with shakes, makes a solid 11b ! Enjoyable

Head for a great corner and then step left on a short crux over the roof.

This routes name is kinda ridiculous now as the tree in danger no longer exists.

A slippery start (the crux) gains some cool holds. Another delicate 5.11 move gains a ledge and a easy but fun finish. Old guide book says 11C but there is no way this 11C even on a bad day.

Balancey moves and crimps lead to the crux over the bulge.

Start below the left-trending corner, under the roof which also happens to be the crux. An intricate, background in technical climbing will be your best ally above. Equipped with perma-draws for Rainbow Walls Warmup.

Start on Sister Ray but negotiate right. A very fun corner awaits

Work your way up a right facing corner to a small tricky bulge on excellent rock. Continue up to anchors just right of a right facing corner.

Starts under a small roof, trending up a left facing corner. Balancey, face-climbing ends at a larger roof. Bring the thunder, and storm above, keeping calm to clip the anchor under the next sizeable roof.

Great climbing on edges and sidepulls lead to steepish climbing on an overhanging arête. Mega Classic and a must do. Now equipped with a perma draw anchor.

Direct start to Holiday In Cambodia. Flood washed away 2m's so it has a high first bolt now. Adds a grade with a harder start

This fun route has fantastic holds, great movement and outstanding stone. To start, traverse in from the ledge up on the ledge. Back clip the first bolt.

Start ontop of the small dirt hill. Fun sidepull climbing to a neat little crux around the last bolt
