About Upper Crags:

Easy 4wd access. Parking near base of cliff. Some good sport climbing. Chains at top of most climbs. Has fixed, mixed and natural pro. Guide book can be purchased at 'Wearabouts' (Salmon Arm). Granite is diferent than Squamish granite, but unique and exciting in its own way.
Approach: Gravel Rd. up to the bluffs is about 6 steep switchback, you can access with a small car with good clearance, but you will feel sorry for the poor thing once you get to the top, access is better with a truck. Once you get to the bluffs, its worth it. Great rock, and fun routes
Approach Time: from parking easy 3-5 minute walk along a clear trail,
Latitude, Longitude:
Access Issues: located in the Silver Creek Valley, beautiful!
Rock Type: Granite
