Grohman Narrows Crag

Description:

A really cool cleft type canyon on the hillside across the river. Super featured granite, tons of technical testpieces. A very unique location for climbing with lots of adventure. Big vibes and not conducive to inexperienced climbers..

Directions:

Turn onto Marsden Rd. Take the left fork (right goes along the lake to Candy Boulder) and reset your odometer. Travel through the gate (closed in winter and eary spring due to avalanche and rockfal hazard) past 3 rock slides to a great little pullout on your right hand side at 3.5km (please only park here). Walk back down the road 100m to a steep trail leading down the ditch (riverside) A sign and built up cairns should be present to lead the way. Walk down through brush then down steep rock slabs to the top of the canyon (west side). Most will rappel Kootenay Corner to get in and out but other options are available (fixed line escape)
