Le Mont Larose, situé au cœur des Laurentides, est un joyau de l'escalade du Québec. À Weir, comme il est appelé par les grimpeurs, on y retrouve un peu de tout, fissures, dièdres, voies sport, multi-longueurs, de l'artif, des devers, des toits et de la dalle. Vraiment de tout!
L'ambiance y est irréelle avec les antennes paraboliques de TATA Communication, et l'escalade y est superbe. Souvent considéré comme un lieu où l'escalade était difficile. Dans les dernières années, un grand projet, chapeauté par la FQME, de mise à niveau des voies et d'ouverture de nouvelles voies, a aidé à rendre l'escalade plus variée à travers les cotations. Tous y trouveront du plaisir.

Mount Larose is situated in the heart of the Laurentians. Weir, as it is called by local climbers is one of the premiere climbing areas of the province. It towers 100m over the alien landscape caused by the communication dishes of TATA Communications. The climbing here is quite phenomenal. You can find a bit of everything, slabs, faces, overhangs, roofs, sport climbs, crack climbs, test-pieces, hardcore climbs, multi pitches, beautiful dihedrals and aretes, it really has it all! When people think of climbing at Weir, the first reaction is that there is not much easy stuff. But in the last few years thanks to the FQME and a governmental program to update, rebolt, and open up new climbs, Weir now has an amazing variety of climbs in all grades. There is something for everyone to enjoy.
