Abstract
Northwestern Ontario hosts some of the oldest and hardest granite cliffs in North America, surrounded by beautiful clean lakes. KENORA ROCK CLIMBS is the most complete guide to this pristine region stretching from the Whiteshell Provincial Park to just east of Kenora, Ontario. Most of the climbing is located less than three hours from Winnipeg and is frequented by climbers for day trips and weekend adventures.This book covers eight main popular areas, over 400 sport, trad, aid, and bouldering routes, useful tips (and less useful tips), original writing, drawings, and maps, sweet photos of a few people who love this as much as we do. This one’s for the gear heads, the noobs, the pebble wrestlers, the crushers, and the dirtbags. (Kenora Rock Climbs website)
