DescriptionThe Fraser Valley is the large area spanning from Abotsford to Hope B.C. The climbing in the area is mostly single pitch trad routes and bolted sport routes. There are also several major and popular mountains in this area (i.e. Mt. Slesse, Rexford, and the Cheam Range). The Rock can vary from solid granite to limestone and, unfortunately, some very loose and flaky volcanic rock (mostly in the Cheam Range). Getting ThereFrom Vancouver follow Hwy 1 east until you reach the valley.

Suspension of Disbelief V10 International : Canada : ... : Elbow Lake bouldering
Start down in the cave on two smooth edges, paste your feet on, and throw for the fat shelf. Use some trickery to make the 4+ foot reach to a couple of small insets on the roof. Work your way into a crazy overhead heel hook and reach out to a bad mono/thumb catch on the featureless arete to set you up for the crux sequence. Climb through the steep scoop and finish up the face using the arete.
