I'm heading down to Obed on Sunday and would welcome any suggestions on which area to go to and which routes to get on. 5.8-5.11 range.

ooh ooh, I almost forgot, check out the area called Stephen Kings library. there is this cool 11c there. It is the 4th or 5th route from the left. About 45 ft long, really good, slopey and fun.

Thanks all. I have a guidebook, but only one day and I want to make it a good one.

Hmm, might also need some beta for some sunny climbs too. Supposed to be in the 50's on Sunday.

hey john it is really warm at the tierrany area. i have climbed there on a 25 degree day. i know you are looking for 5.8 to 5.11. but you should give tierrany5.12a or jungle jane5.11d a run they are both really cool.the view is awesome.

south clear and tierrany bakes in the sun. stay away from lily bluff if it's cold.

I ended up at Tierrany Wall and got on the 10a, 10b, 10c, and Tales of Sperm. They were all great, but Sperm was superb. I thought hard about Tierrany, but decided that rather than hangdogging up it, I would wait for another day to try it or Jane.
Very friendly rock and holds there. I was impressed with the climbing and the beauty.
Thanks again for the beta.
