Description
A scrappy old-school crag with one large area and a shorter, steeper area. The granite is much finer-grained than much of Squamish, almost like climbing in Index or on Basalt.
Getting There
From Vancouver: After Furry Creek, finish the long climb along the highway. Around the bend to the right there is a pullout with a yellow gate - drive *past* this pullout and around one more bend, then take the next pullout on the right near the V0- south-facing 15 foot crack (Hope, 5.2) that is visible from the highway. The old McLane guidebook suggests not to park in front of the gate - I don't know if this is still relevant beta or not.
From Squamish: You have to drive to Furry Creek and turn around, then follow the above directions.
After parking: take the trail up from the gate. The main crag will be obvious on the left. If you continue up the hills into the trees you will find a smaller crag that notably contains the 11d roof crack Rufus.
