The area right of the Skapper map is visible from the “S” turn of the old highway. It is too chossy to be worth climbing, but I have heard of people repelling off it.
I am not sure about the area across Paces Lake. I assume the lake itself has been checked. The Bow Wall is off the left side of the map. (Discovered after I produced the map.) There may be other gems in there.
The close contours at the top of the map could be accessed via the old rail line (transCanada trail?) Probably quickest to continue up the valley to where the road crosses the river, hike east to the old rail bed/trail, and backtrack south. I remember seeing a cliff in this area while looking across the river from the parking area for Columbus, but I have not had a chance to check it out. A new crag was found along the old rail bed, called “The Cave”, but it might be farther south.
The Musquodoboit Valley could use further investigation.
