Three Big New Granite Routes in Quebec

Two climbers from Quebec headed to the Hautes-Gorges-de-la-Rivière-Malbaie north of Quebec City this summer in search of a new route. Patrick Brouillard and Charles Lacroix ended up climbing a new 150-metre 5.9 they called La Farouche. Their new route is far above the Malbaie River and left of Sens Unique 5.8 on Acropole des Draveurs.

The two climbers also established Beauté Sauvage, a 150-metre 5.10 and Le Chemin de la passion, a new 350-metre 5.8. For the full story in French see here.
