Anyone out there know if the Ice Box is in shape?
Below is the post that Francis put up last winter. I have not been there so the beta is not my own. Hope this helps. Here is some beta. Siler Streak, Mt. Arrowsmith AI2, 5.5, 200m It mostly goes 4th class with the exit out of the gully being a short mid fifth traverse. Route is located on the east face of the ridge connecting the south and main summits. Approach: From main summit head down ridge towards south summit. Scramble down the second gully to your left to get to the bottom of the face. Hike south to reach the bottom of the Silver Streak gully. An alternate approach may be to rappel from the notch below the Nose� From the bottom of the Silver Streak Gully climb ice or snow to reach the first short rock step, continue from there past one more step. Near the top of the gully climb the face traversing right to exit the gully. 5.5 section. FB
Hi, I've heard/seen a few pics of this route on Arrowsmith called Silver Streak. I want to climb it! Does anyone have any info on this climb? Topos??
Was at Boston Falls yesterday (Jan 20), no ice to speak of. Could see chunks of ice at the base of the face that had obviously come off in the warm temps. Hope it cools down.
Can anybody direct me to the proper authority pertaining to bolting routs in the CRD? There are a few areas worthy of development, but I'm not sure what the regulations are, or who to talk to about it.
I was talking to somebody at crag the other day, and they were saying that there is a new bouldering area under development about a half hour hike past the cyberia boulders. Does anybody have directions, or perhaps any other knowledge of this area?? It would be greatly appreciated.
The new Climbers' Access Society of BC site was launched today. The old site was getting outdated and was hard to maintain. With the new site members will be able to track their membership and subscribe to feeds so that they can be kept up to date with the latest access news from their area. Check it out at http://www.access-society.ca/. The site is a bit bare at the moment but will be filling up as we get time.
