F I Love It carves out a thrilling one-pitch sport climbing experience just beyond the familiar routes of Higgyland, in the rugged outdoors of Powell River, British Columbia. This climb shares its first two bolts and energetic moves with the adjacent route, Gotta Like It~, offering a seamless introduction that warms your muscles and sharpens your focus. As you ascend past the initial protection points, the route demands concentration on a challenging boulder problem that pushes you past a prominent bulge. The rock here dares you to trust your foot placements and commit to a dynamic move that opens the way to a section of more relaxed climbing.

The climb’s character shifts above the bulge, inviting you into a stretch that, while run out, remains manageable. This section encourages good route reading and steady movement to navigate the easy terrain safely to the anchors. Despite the shorter length and fewer bolts—just five in total—F I Love It packs in a punch of technical climbing that will satisfy those searching for a test of power without excessive runout exposure.

Located in the scenic area of Higgyland, this route benefits from its well-protected sport line that rewards boldness and precision. The surrounding landscape is raw and windswept, with thick coastal forests that feed the fresh, salty air. The rock face itself is sunlit in the morning, making early starts ideal to avoid the afternoon heat and occasional drizzle that can roll in from the coast. The descent is straightforward via walking off the top, allowing climbers to reflect on the climb’s dynamic moves while easing back to base.

To prepare, climbers should bring a standard sport rack and consider shoes with reliable edging to handle the bulge’s crux moves. Because the upper section is run out, mental focus and confidence in your abilities are key. Aim to climb this route in stable weather to ensure the rock is dry and secure. Getting to Higgyland involves a short approach through forested paths that hint at the isolation and serenity that nature offers here.

F I Love It is a compact yet focused climb that delivers sharp movement and a taste of bold sport climbing in one of British Columbia’s quieter outdoor climbing schools. It invites intermediate climbers chasing a technical crux and offers a clear path to push their grades while soaking in the unique coastal wilderness atmosphere.
