Estuary Roof
Description:
First climbed on June 1st 2014. High value body tension climbing on sandstone slopers. Usually dries quickly, as the rock is exposed and gets sun for most of the day. The landing is dry up to a 4.5m high tide. Check the tide table just in case: https://www.tides.gc.ca/eng/station?sid=7917 NANAIMO BOULDERING GUIDE ^CLICK HERE^
Directions:
Park on the west side of the road where the concrete shoulder barrier ends. Approx: 49°08'24.2"N 123°52'51.0"W The start of the trail should be visible from here. It's not a very obvious trail after the start, but it kind of follows the road south a little bit and then goes steep downhill toward the water. If you lose the trail just head straight down the hill until you hit the beach and follow it south to find the roof.
