Trip: Squamish BC, Canada - Centurion

 

Date: 9/9/2015

 

Trip Report:

Mark lacroix and I decided to find and climb a newer multi pitch route at chek canyon north of squamish, known for its decent steep sport climbing. From the regular parking lot for chek head up the FSR with a 4x4 to large gravel turn around or walk to here if driving 2 wheel drive. Continue on road until obvious trail splits off on the left. Follow this for 15 min to very large scree field. Follow cairns to bottom of climb.

 

Refer to topo for pitch by pitch break down.

Overall the climb was worth doing, nice rock and good holds. Protection is very good. Rap route for decent (good safe hardware). Long slings were very useful to reduce rope drag. Great views above the hwy 99 valley.

 

Gear Notes:

12 draws, long draws are best, bring 5 extendable, no tat needed.

 

Approach Notes:

If not using a truck, it feels like a bit of a long haul since its all up hill. Its a very well groomed trail. No signs or ribbon tape but very obvious.
