A wonderful route located in a great position with lots of atmosphere. Sounds pretty great for a route shorter than 20m, but this little aesthetic climb is worth taking the 2 minute walk from the road to sample the fun. Situated high above Arrow Lake on the Waterfall Wall (there is a spring waterfall located right beside you) the roaring water and great sustained climbing is all you need and did I mention that this is also a sun trap :) Hopefully in the future there will be more to come around these parts, because the routes are a lot of fun..

Approach: Drive down towards Syringa Provincial Park on Broadwater Rd. (see other route topos on this page for more details) to where you come across Scotty's Marina. About 150m past this you will see a waterfall on your right with a big cliff to the right of this. If you hit a bend in the road you've gone too far and you are probably near the Zebra Wall. There is a pullout directly across from this route, take the marked trail in the forest for about 2 minutes to the base of this route on the left most prow.
The Climb: Pull a very bouldery move off the deck (low bolt) to an aesthetic crack/seam, follow this through tricky, sustained ground to a delicate finish. Highly Recommended!
