tlinn Posted May 18, 2006 Posted May 18, 2006 (edited) Climb: Nicolum Creek - Hope, BC-Kemo Sabe Date of Climb: 5/17/2006 Trip Report: Over the last few summers I have been busy working on a multi-pitch crag near Hope, BC. I have had a lot of time over the past few weeks to head out to the crag and I am close to finishing many projects. I wanted to post something to get people stoked on the climbing and let them know that a topo with route descriptions and approach details will be available for pick-up somewhere in town (either the Blue Moose or tourism infocentre). I will try and get it out by the Canada Day long weekend. I hope people will enjoy the climbing and the area. Altogether there will be about 10 routes varying in length from 1 to 3 pitches with the possibility of connecting several routes. If you have any questions or would like to help in the development please email hopeclimbs@hotmail.com Some photos taken yesterday: drilling the rappel station on Kemo Sabe Adrian B leading on the first ascent of Kemo Sabe a.k.a. Flying Squirrel, 5.10b me seconding Kemo Sabe Adrian on First Blood, 5.6 cleaning! Gear Notes: full rack Edited June 7, 2006 by tlinn Quote
G-spotter Posted May 18, 2006 Posted May 18, 2006 Ya dude I'm there tomorrow, 4 PM! Or meet me earlier when I get out of the chopper at Valley Helicopters Quote
BCMike Posted May 19, 2006 Posted May 19, 2006 Nice work Tyler Hope to test some of your routes in the future. Quote
Ponzini Posted May 19, 2006 Posted May 19, 2006 Is that the crag that you can see straight ahead as you cross the Nicolum bridge at the start of the Coq heading north? I've always wondered if there were any routes up there.... Quote
jordop Posted May 19, 2006 Posted May 19, 2006 You can see the scrubbing from Chilliwack Seriously though, I didn't know there were THAT many routes. Sounds really cool All we need is a VANCOUVER ROCK GUIDE Quote

G-spotter Posted May 20, 2006 Posted May 20, 2006 Oh boy, we did some extreme top roping today!!!!! EXTREEEEEME! Im so covered in dirt Quote
tlinn Posted May 20, 2006 Author Posted May 20, 2006 Me too...time to take a shower We have so worked the moves out on that climb. I`m feeling so confident I might even do it without the cellphone. Is it still an on-site if you call a friend for beta at the crux? Quote
G-spotter Posted May 20, 2006 Posted May 20, 2006 Maybe we should just headpoint it with no bolts, since we have it so wired... just put a crashpad on the ground below the crux Quote
G-spotter Posted May 20, 2006 Posted May 20, 2006 poor jordan. maybe you can find a secret crag next to a major highway yourself one day! Quote
jordop Posted May 20, 2006 Posted May 20, 2006 (edited) And that is one of the infinite number of attractions to living in Chilliwack Edited June 4, 2021 by jordop Quote
