Dynamitus Boulder

The first boulder encountered.

1. Levitate SDS V7 star

Tackle the sharp crimps up the short corner. Sharp as a tack! 📌 (FA by Ben Blakney 2003)

2. Kirbatron SDS V6 star

Kick off from the jug, power up to tricky slopers, and prepare for a challenging topout with a not-so-friendly landing. 🤨

3. Dynamitus V7 star

Start with your right hand pinching the arête and left hand on a crimp. Balance your way up the arête—left edges are fair game for feet. 🧘 (FA G. Losier 2000)
4. Dynamitus SDS V10 star

Get ready for an impossibly scrunchy start under the bulge and a crux transition to standing. How low can you go? 🕺 (FA G. Losier 2000)
5. When Bitter and Ugly Meet V2 star

Climb straight up the face on amazing edges. It doesn't get much better than this! 🤩

La Sacree Volee Boulder

A small boulder that mainly serves as the downclimb to the Dynamitus Boulder.

6. The Preview V4 star

Start with your left hand on a sloping arête and your right hand on a crimp. Battle the barn door, slap with your right hand, and face a tricky top-out. 💥

7. La Sacree Volee SDS V5 star

Experience a scrunch fest up the short corner. So much scrunch, so little time! 🎉

Nouveau Riche Boulder

The tallest boulder in the area.

8. Nouveau Itch SDS V8 star

Sit start with both hands on a side pull. The cryptic transition to the arête puzzled climbers for years. For full enjoyment, try it without beta! 🧩 (FA G. Losier 2000)

9. Nouveau Riche V2 star

Climb the crack from standing and savor this classic layback problem. 🌟
locnr1
10. BK McMuffin V4 star

Tackle the face just right of the crack. Go technical or powerful with a dyno, depending on your preference. Got lost in the crack for Nouveau Riche? Oops! 🗺️ A sit start is possible but doesn't add much.
11. Alpha Female V4 star

Scale the slab straight up between BK McMuffin and La Force Du Sang, relying on thin crystals and small edges. Finish on slopers. 💎

Alpha Female is tougher than it seems and humbles those who underestimate it, just like its namesake Aryane Bouchard (1983 - 2021).
locnr1
12. True Blood SDS V5 star

Begin on crimps, then balance your way through both arêtes, crimps, and tricky feet. Reach for the sloper on the lip and head upwards.
13. La Force Du Sang SDS V7 star

An eliminate and morpho challenge! Start on crimps, pull up to the big hold on the arête, and continue. Right arête is off-limits. Give it a go as a dyno! 🚀
locnr1
14. Imogen SDS V6 star

Crimp with all your might to lift off the ground—it's over quickly! A left hand undercling helps. Remember, stacking pads only cheats yourself. 🧱

Hoofmaker Boulder

locnr1
15. Hoofmaker SDS V6 star

Starting on small crimps inside the cave, climb over the lip and tackle a committing slab topout. Watch out for sharp edges! ⚠️
16. Miss Steak SDS V3 star

Ascend the face on delightful diagonal holds. A pleasant climb! 😊       
locnr1
17. Can I have a Drum Roll SDS V5 star

Start from the obvious low hold and traverse left to right. Embrace your inner butt dragger. 🍑
locnr1
18. Smoke on the Water SDS V1 star

Begin with low holds and scale the short face. The climb's better if you avoid the arête. 😉

La Vie En Rose

The last small boulder in the cluster, home to a single popular line. Landing is often wet.
locnr1
19. La Vie En Rose V3 star

Balance your way up the small boulder with graceful moves. Try it as a sit down start (SDS) for the same grade! ⚖️

Dirty Dancer Boulder

A small boulder located behind The Preview with two lowball warmup problems.
locnr1
21. Freedom 45 SDS V0 star

Kick off matched on a good jug, swing out right, and top out the mini prow. Tiny but mighty! 💪
22. Dirty Dancer V0 star

Kick off matched on the low crimp, swing out left to the sloper, and conquer the overhang's middle.

L'Urbaniste Boulder

A small boulder located directly on the main approach trail. Great view of peggys cove. You can't miss it.
locnr1
23. L'Urbaniste SDS V3 star

Begin on the low sweetspot of the slopey rail and master the arête. 👌
