Crag Details
Located on a band of brown quartzite rock below the ridgeline up to Cinquiefoil summit, this crag has been in development since 2020 by Matt Reynolds, Francois Laplante, and the Northern Exposure crew.
The climbing is set in an open area overlooking the Athabasca River Valley. The grades for the routes range from 5.5 to 5.9 and ascend fairly vertical rock with large hand holds and a few small overhangs on the more difficult routes.
Full beta for the crag is available on the Northern Exposure website.
