Do It Left – 5.9 (trad)

Description:

From the main parking area, start on the South Cliffs trail, go past a large boulder and then take the first spur trail on your left. This then quickly forks right (up a vertical step towards the Far Left Wall) and left (the way you want to go). You'll quickly come to an obvious belay beside a big old Doug Fir with fire scars and rot. Look up and you'll spot bolts in the distance. P1 is mixed with gear to 2" and a bolt up high, leading to a bolted rap station. P2 is a generously bolted sport route.

    Wow, what an awesome climb. Start out cruiser fun and gets more fun, ending overlooking the valley. I'm impressed! Take your pals on it for sure!

    A nice little outing. Pretty mellow. Light gardening down low was required but I second the "best first trad lead" sentiment below. 2nd pitch is awesome.

    I'll go ahead and say I think P1 is the best opportunity in the Victoria area for new trad leaders to play around with gear. Low angle, easy moves and good stances, and lots of placements for nuts and cams. Definitely better than the WTF runout routes at the Schoolyard, the risky overhanging chimney that kicks off the 5.8 at Disco, etc. And it's getting pretty clean with all the traffic!

    This is a mixed multipitch route. P1 is a 5.8 mixed (25m) starts with a bit of trad up a dike then the rest is sport, P2 is 5.9 sport. We climbed it without any trad gear which was not smart.
