Hi John, we figured that we saw some of your winter anchors since some were over 15ft in the air on a side wall (i.e. near the top). Cheers, Henrik

A nice route exists by the "Grad 76" cave. Mixed 10c I figure. Approx 35 m., bolted station at the top.

New Routes - New Route Comox Lake

by andy on Tuesday, August 24, 2010

Yes, that's the block that came off, probably just as well its gone, could have hurt someone. Grade is more like 10d now. Just having a look out to the left. Have a bolt in as a directional See how it cleans up, thin for sure.

by john on Tuesday, August 24, 2010

did you pull off the lose block at the bottom left corner? That was nice for stemming across to, but was always suspect. how hard now. Are you putting a line up the face to the left of birds nest? looks tough.

On Birds Nest on Cathedral Rock, the start of the corner is quite a bit harder now. I pulled off some loose blocks when I was top roping a traverse out to the face on the left. Fortunatley the protection in the corner is still excellent.
