Description:

This west facing limestone crag offers lots of shade until the afternoon. Prime time is May, late July, August, September. Please leave grade suggestions for routes as they are tentative. There is no top access for top-roping.

This crag was mentioned in Lyle Knight's 1996 book, Central BC Rock, as "On the brink of seeing extensive development." One route was bolted here in the late 90s but then attention was focused elsewhere and Purgatory languished...until now.

*This crag has more of an alpine feel. Please anticipate some loose rock and wear helmets at all times. As a belayer, think about where you're standing.*

Directions / Travel Info:

75km east of Prince George on Hwy 16. There is a non-descript turnoff to the right, before the Sugarbowl chain-up. Drive around the corner and park in the pull-out leaving the road open. Start walking down the old logging road to pick up the trail for 3km.
