Watch Kruk and Blumel on Zombie Roof in 2008

Jeremy Blumel and Jason Kruk jam the awesome Smoke Bluffs roof crack

The great Squamish climbers Jeremy Blumel and Jason Kruk on the classic Zombie Roof in Squamish. The first ascent of the steep roof crack was by Peter Croft.

Found at the Smoke Bluffs, the roof crack has a number of hard cruxes. Nearly 40 years after the first ascent, the hard finger-locks remain a sort of rite of passage for all the strongest crack climbers. In 2012, Will Stanhope free-soloed Zombie Roof.
