An amazing stretch of vertical to slightly overhanging granite peppered with long sport climbs and the occasional gear-protected adventure. The routes are generally hard, and feature smooth faces that succumb to highly technical moves and fingers of steel. A few moderates exist at the far left end, but the wall is mostly in the 5.12 range.

One of Skaha's most popular walls is a soaring sweep of orange-streaked gneiss that rises above a jumble of large boulders. The flanks of this crag host a decent collection of quality 5.10-5.11 sport climbs, but the real prize is the central wall, a sector lush with intricate and physical 5.12-5.13 lines that stretch up to 25 metres or more. Oddly, the lowest layer of this wall is crumbly kitty litter, but the routes work around it and it doesn't seem to diminish their quality. The base of Doctors' Wall is a popular place to lounge and, on most any weekend, you'll have to trade burns on your project with a variety of climbers. For those looking for friendly moderates, check out the nice collection of short sport climbs in the Fern Gully boulders below the amin wall. There's something here for everyone... Conditions: Doctors' Wall faces due east and gets blasted by the morning sun, which is great in the cold weather. The pitches between the boulders in Fern Gully stay much cooler and get limited sunshine, some not all. It's possible to climb a number of routes here in light rain since the crag overhangs and there are "rain" anchors below the upper slabs. Use the photo topo to see which pitches work best.

Affectionately referred to as "Sendless Wall", this long stretch of cliffline is the home of supremely technical face-climbing testpieces that will shut you down if you don't bring your footwork and crimping A-game. It's also home to The Cirque if you're looking to get pumped at the same time.

If you are driving across the country on the Trans Canada Highway, you will travel through a vast expanse of nothing but prairie. Standing Rock, a glacial erratic about an hour from the #1, is definitely not a destination, but it makes a pretty good spot for the traveling boulderer to stretch their legs. The lone boulder is 12-15 feet high and has about 10 problems, ranging from V0 to V5, with a couple of projects that may be harder. Access Standing Rock is a historic site and there are pictographs on the boulder. While there are no access issues, it is best to keep a low profile.

This is the biggest cluster of boulders in the stretch of forest below the cliffline. Has a good mixture of problems, easy to moderate to difficult. Probably the second most frequented bouldering area besides the Bonzais. There are more climbs here than meets the eye.
