Description
The Eldred Valley contains a vast expanse of huge granite walls. It will provide great climbing and a wilderness experience. There is also some excellent bouldering and hiking. Information for routes is best found here, or going to the recently opened Powell River Climbing Co-op in the Townsite Market.
Getting There

Psyche Slab & Caragdur are both accessed from the CAD Climbers Camp. Access the West Main Wall at Mile 35, Amon Gwareth via the Dianne Main, and Amon Rudh at mile 39 (4wd). All logging roads in Powell River are marked in MILES.

If staying in the walk-in campground for multiple days, having a wheelbarrow to shuttle loads is very nice. There is sometimes one sitting at the kiosk in the parking area but don’t count on it.
Alternatively, there is a shorter trail that branches off the outhouse trail going up to the road. To access with a vehicle, drive another ~300m up the road from the car camping area and shuttle loads from there. (130m vs 300m) Jul 4, 2021
