Howe Sound west, across from Britannia Beach

Post by Nico » Mon Sep 19, 2011 6:44 pm

Paddled on the west coast of Howe Sound, across from Britannia Beach. There are fixed ropes for two pitches on a sea cliff and a small boat landing (wood strips drilled in and a rope ladder) at the cliff base. It look like it's the first and only route on that cliff. Anyone here knows about this and can share some info?

There was a thread earlier this year asking about climbs across Howe Sound but they were closer to the Spit so no what you're looking at. Have you got any pictures you could post?

I think the idea with the Howe Sound water-access crags is that they are supposed to take some of the pressure off popular areas like the Smoke Bluffs and Grand Wall Base.

Free shuttle service will be provided...
