Nanaimo Crags

Post by mr_staggerlee » Fri Jul 03, 2009 7:47 pm

Can anyone familiar with the area suggest which crag(s) offer the best sport climbing in the 11a - 12a range suitable for a day trip?

Thanks for any info.

Dark Side - Nanaimo River.
It will be pleasantly cool and shady even in this hot weather.
Good sandstone, mostly bolted but some routes take a cam or two.

Heard that it may be 'closed' for some power washing next week.

Found it - a very nice spot with some good climbing -- definitely good on a hot day.
Pretty mossy and dirty though -- some locals told me that the power washing is supposed to happen in the next week or two -- will be a very good thing.
Thanks for the beta.
