Approach

To reach Bunny Hill, you follow the Heart Creek trail almost to its end. You will cross a bridge from right to left and right in front of you to the left is a wall over a small beach. Some of the routes to the far left are actually over water and there is a waterfall that ends the wall to the left. Outside of First Rock, this could be the second most popular wall in Heart Creek.

Route Description

Routes listed from left to right as you face the wall.

Heartless- 5.10b- 6 bolts to anchor, one obstacle to cross, decent route
Rat in a Cage- 5.10a- 4 bolts to anchor, short but challenging route
Chip Butty- 5.10a- 3 bolts to same anchor as Rat in a Cage, little tougher navigating over the feature
Simple- 5.4
You Oughtta Know- 5.9+- 9 bolts to anchor, longest route on Bunny Hill, a good one
Come as you Are- 5.9- 6 bolts to anchor, kind of a smear
Until it Sleeps- 5.10d
Contemporary Cuisine- 5.10b
Rough But Well Groomed- 5.9+
Carpe Diem- 5.10d

Essential Gear

At least one 60 Meter Rope, Helmet, Climbing Shoes, Some Gear (mostly bolted sport routes though), The Local Guide Book (Sport Climbs in the Canadian Rockies) and these Topo Maps.

Miscellaneous Info

""You cannot stay on the summit forever; you have to come down again. So why bother in the first place? Just this: What is above knows what is below, but what is below does not know what is above. One climbs, one sees. One descends, one sees no longer, but one has seen. There is an art of conducting oneself in the lower regions by the memory of what one saw higher up. When one can no longer see, one can at least still know.""   --Rene Daumal
