North America, Canada, British Columbia, Mushroom Route, Papoose Rock

Publication Year: 1967.

Mushroom Route, Papoose Rock. The right half of Papoose’s front face, just above the Squamish-Woodfibre Ferry Dock, had not yielded a route until this two-pitch climb was done by Dave Beckstead and me in October. The climb scales a fairly difficult aid crack, bolts a blank wall and continues on aid to the rim of the summit.
