Slab climbing cannot get much better than this. Start low on your choice of holds and make fancy footwork to reach opposing sidepull crimps. Step your way up and launch for a decent rail right below the lip. Scary and proud this send will be. Photos and video do not do this boulder justice in beauty or size.

2 years in the making since my last visit to The Nooks - and it had been on my mind ever since! This time I managed to a bit longer of a trip, which meant the opportunity to rekindle relationships, check out more recent problems, help develop new areas, and revisit old projects! It was kind of intense. Maybe the longest stint of full-on bush camping I’ve done. Campfires and companionship got us through many nights of rain and frosty mornings … and, o yeah - a bit of Tim Hortons dominos helped when things got really desperate. SO MUCH appreciation for the passion, dedication, and unrelenting effort put in by the people behind The Nooks and its development. Brendan Baars ( IG: @brendanbaars ), Aaron Bopp, Charlie Hall, Dj Viernes, Danny Plonka, and many more. All of the best footage was captured by Dj Viernes ( IG: @djviernes , @thewrinklyherd ) The answer is YES, you should go !
