Ascent Notes for: Boomstick Crack - 5.4 popular Average Rating : 4.00/5

Felt like 5.7, maybe becoz I used my hands for the flake instead of just my feet. If you have walked on it then it should be easy. I'm surprised by the G safety rating. Though easy, one tip off balance you'll end up on the ledge, unless you have multiple very big cams.

Easy, but interesting walking on the extremely thin flake

This route was simply a means to an end for me. I didn't really have any interest in doing Granville Island after reading the reviews, so we did this instead. Pulled up and walked up in like a sidewalk. Lame.... I've walked sidewalks that were harder than this

We used this route to link Diedre to the hanging forest on our way to Squamish Buttress.

It's good fun. First move off the Broadway Ledge is the crux. Then it is a fine balancy cruise to the top.

We climbed it in one very long pitch and used a rope tug system to communicate. Drag was present but minimal.

I'd call it more of a 5.7 than a 5.4.

2 pitches ooge lead pitch one 5.7 and I lead the second pitch 5.6

First move really helps if your taller

The first move is a bit tricky if you're short (I actually fell), but once you get on the flake it's a piece of cake. Nice way to get form the apron up to Squamish Buttress, etc..
