Ben Smith Climbs New Possible V14 in Nova Scotia

Ben Smith had a strong 2016, establishing Nova Scotia’s first V14 with Physical Graffiti and the province’s first 5.14 with The Trickle Down. To start 2017, Smith has ticked another hard problem he has called Full Clip V13/14.

Nova Scotia climbing history goes back decades and heading into this year, it seems there are more climbers than ever keen for hard rock on the East Coast. Last year saw new moderate 5.10s added to the walls of Nova Scotia and new 5.13 testpieces to crags in New Brunswick. Watch Smith on his 2016 new routes below.
