"Got Pull? delivers a compact but intense test of power and technique on granite within the Sea to Sky corridor. This 75-foot single-pitch route challenges climbers with smooth, technical corners before demanding dynamic pulls to solid holds—perfect for those seeking a focused sport climb in a stunning mountain setting."
Got Pull? on Forgotten Wall stands as a focused test of strength and technique, set against the rugged backdrop of the Sea to Sky corridor between Squamish and Whistler. The climb demands calculated precision right from its start: a smooth, technical corner that requires deliberate footwork and balance to unlock. As you progress, the route shifts gears abruptly, challenging your upper body with sustained, powerful moves—those big pulls will push your limits while rewarding you with solid, positive holds.
This single-pitch climb measures 75 feet and is bolted consistently, offering seven fixed points that provide confidence to those ready to push their grade to the 5.12a range. The route feels compact yet intense, making every move count. Taller climbers might find the grade slightly kinder, as some sequences feel more accessible when reaching for the holds.
Approaching Forgotten Wall places you within a striking alpine environment rich with stunning views and a brisk mountain atmosphere. The approach is manageable, winding through characteristic forest trails that open to vertical granite faces. Elevation and exposure combine here to create both an energizing and immersive climbing experience.
Weather conditions in this Sea to Sky zone vary with the seasons, so plan climbs in late spring through early fall when the granite is dry and the temperatures are moderate. Morning or early afternoon attempts let you benefit from balanced shade and sun exposure, helping you maintain grip and comfort. The wall’s orientation invites you to time your climb to avoid lingering dampness or heat.
Regardless of your skill level, come prepared with solid shoes geared for smearing and edging on steely granite, and bring chalk to manage sweat through those demanding pulls. Hydration is key—carry enough water for the approach and climb, as the remote setting offers no immediate resupply.
Beyond the physical challenge, Got Pull? embodies the Sea to Sky’s spirit of adventure and focus, pushing climbers to connect their movement and mindset. It rewards commitment with a direct and rewarding series of moves that build strength, control, and climbing savvy—qualities every athlete strives to hone.
This climb is a must for anyone looking to test their power on rock with clean protection in a setting that balances natural beauty and climbing rigor. Whether you're ticking off your first 5.12 or sharpening your sport climbing game, Got Pull? promises a memorable push with clear, actionable beta to guide your send.
While well-bolted, the route’s big moves require solid lock-off strength; avoid rushing or overextending on less certain holds. Check weather conditions carefully—wet granite can become dangerously slick. The approach trail can be slippery when damp, so use caution especially during spring runoff or after rain.
Start early to avoid afternoon heat on the wall.
Wear climbing shoes with good edging ability for the smooth corner.
Bring chalk to manage sweat during the powerful moves.
Carry plenty of water to stay hydrated during the approach and climb.
The climb is straightforwardly protected by 7 well-spaced bolts, allowing climbers to focus on strength and technique without worrying about gear placements. Quickdraws sufficient to clip all bolts comfortably are recommended.
