Seasons
Ocean breeze, evening shade, amazing climbing, and big holds that aren't sharp (by NS standards) make this one of the best summer spots in Nova Scotia. Ofcourse, everything gets easier in shoulder seasons. Beware rough seas, especially in the fall.

1. Warm-Up Traverse V2 star

Begin at the 🌊, traverse the entire wall, and exit the broken corner. A lengthy problem that tests endurance and technique. For extra finger warm-up, exclude the jugs, and/or link into Tall Guy.

2. Tall Guy V4 star

Grab the crimps, scale the towering face, and revel in the full thrill by exiting at the peak. Resist the temptation of the broken corner holds on the left! ⬆️

P. L'Ame En Premier V-Project star

Originally an FA by Ghislain Losier (V9) in 2003, this line is still possible but significantly harder, making it a brand new project. Face holds only; arête is out. A difficult problem for those seeking a challenge. 💥
3. Todd's Crimp Problem V3 star

Go straight up the first edges on the left side of the wall. A simple and enjoyable problem for climbers of all levels.
1. Andy's Slopey Problem V3 star

A climb so terrible it makes other turds look bad. Below the reasonable standards for a boulder problem, but included for historical interest. 🚫

5. Tsunami V8 star

Leap off in the quirky corner, playfully dance left across crimps with slick technique to a cozy knee-bar break. Boldly swing left, embracing mighty undercling moves, and crown your ascent on the ramp. A delightful, diverse challenge! 🤩 (FA Sean Cassidy 1999)
6. Imanust SDS V9 star

Ride the reverse wave! Tsunami Backwards, a fresh spin on a classic fave, promises rad thrills in a creative package. 🔄 (FA B. Smizzle 2006)
7. Not as Easy as You V2 star

Climb up the crack in the middle of Tsunami. The topout is tricky, adding an element of difficulty to the problem.
8. Wavelet SDS V8 star

Begin with a lay down start, using a small left crimp and a low right-hand sidepull. Execute a cool kneebar crux 🦵, then make powerful moves straight up through underclings. A unique and challenging problem. (FA Ben Smith 2014)
