Ontario Rock Climbing: The Best of Southern Ontario

Update! The Ontario Rock Climbing guidebook now comes with packaged with an unlock code for the book in the Vertical Life app, which includes Rattlesnake Point, Buffalo Crag (coming soon), Kelso (coming soon), and more! Also comes with the latest update pack and custom stickers – Ontario Rock Climbing, Lion’s Head, and a few from supporting climbing companies!

This is it! After 20 long years, Ontario has a comprehensive rock climbing guidebook and app. This guidebook was a community effort, put together with the help of several climbers, with particular help from this team of notable climbers and contributors: Selene Ma, William Tam, Neel Parikh, Greg Williamson, Leslie Timms, Joe Stubbs, Mike Penney, Mike Smythe, and Mark Smith. It covers the best of Southern Ontario’s rock climbing crags – The Swamp, Devil’s Glen, Metcalfe, Old Baldy, Mount Nemo, and Lion’s Head. Cape Croker is also covered, and other areas such as Rattlesnake Point are unlocked via the Vertical Life app, with more areas coming. Closed crags that are on private land and have become overgrown and unclimbable are left out.

The print guidebook has several features – the most important is that it’s photo intensive, having photos of most routes. Put together and maintained by a team of experts, each area is incredibly up-to-date. On top of that, we’ve given the guidebook a fun look to make the guidebook enjoyable to pore through on and off the walls.

This guidebook features:

• Photographs of over 95% of sport routes and 90% of trad routes
• Route heights and bolt counts
• Contributions from several of Ontario’s most active climbers
• Several photographs of approaches with descriptions – never get lost again!
• GPS coordinates of all walls, crags, and important points
• Beautiful artwork
• Durable binding and pages
• Great photography of Ontario’s current strongest climbers as well as budding climbers
• Unlock code for the Vertical Life app that covers more areas such as Rattlesnake Point
