Fun on the rise for local climbers | The Toronto Observer

"Westgate and Brown’s favourite outdoor Ontario climb is in Bancroft, at a granite crack by a highway called the Eagle’s Nest. It’s where Brown did one of his first climbs and he says he will never forget it.
“I had to climb up last and I had to (do) what’s called top-out, where I actually climb out to the very top of the cliff and gather up all the rope and carry it down,” he said. “When I started climbing the sun was already touching the horizon. I just barely made the sunset up the cliff. It was a very surreal experience.”"
