Theorem

A vlog of our trip to Calabogie and Govan Lake in June 2026. This was the second day of our trip which we spent climbing at Otter Pond, the main bouldering area around Calabogie. 0:00 - Intro and Drive 1:14 - The Hike In 2:27 - Gateway Area 2:34 - The Gate, V2 3:03 - Manteling 101, V0 3:28 - Put All Your Fears To Rest, V2-V4 4:40 - Gateway Arete, V1 6:28 - Nine-Tenths Area 6:46 - Demogorgon, V7 9:21 - The Theorem, V7 9:31 - Twisted By Design, V5 9:52 - The Bullfighter's Friend, V3 11:28 - Main Area 12:28 - North Africa 12:33 - Ride The Wave, V3 15:22 - Tsunami, V4 17:47 - Carnage, V14 Overview 19:17 - Conclusion Use code WESLEY for 10% off at rungne.com

This was felt like one of my hardest ascents to date. A super fun V7 that was also emotionally draining with my inability to top boulders. I didn’t really try the right hand pinch beta, and the big left hand move felt the most intuitive to me. I think either way would be just as hard as the left hand move from the start gave me a lot of trouble. Overall, a very solid Boulder with a sweet top out and very fun movement.

Rafael - June 2020 The Theorem (V7) Hard start that is improved by a small drop knee. From the crimp ledge, go right or left hand to the finishing hold, and topout easily. Music - Signed, Sealed, Delivered (The Fearless Flyers)

We head to Calabogie, Ontario, for the first time, to sample its granite boulders. We expected it to buggy .... and it was... Haha. A beautiful spot with great boulders and potential for much more. Would love to go back (outside of bug season :P).
