Another Hard New Route in Squamish’s Paradise Valley

Paradise Valley has long been known for its excellent bouldering. Over the past few years, new development has been going on along the world-class walls tucked away. Two routes that have received attention are Queen Bee by Stewart Hughes and Spirit of the West by Tom Wright. Access information is limited until the developers complete their projects.

Recently, Alex Quiring established Across the Pond 5.13b on a wall called Kingdom. You can see a list of problems and routes in Paradise Valley on Sendage.com here.

The spoils from this weekend. Always psyched to climb on fresh rock. Got the FA on my new route "Across the Pond" 5.13b at the Kingdom. #arcteryxvancouver #evolvusa
