This is a trip for people who have already some
trad multi-pitch experience. The goal is to climb
Dan's Delight 5.6 or Ken's Cave 5.8 depending on
the weather and the participants signing up for
this trip. Although the grades of both routes
sound not too hard, they are serious climbs due to
their length of more than 400m each. The descent
must not be taken lightly either --- expect it to
be long and tedious (3 hrs according to the guide
book).
Participants need to be able to give the leader a
safe belay, follow confidently at the grade,
handle great exposure, remove gear as a second
etc. Expect a very long day.
If you haven't climbed with me within the last
year, please submit a short description showing
your rock climbing skills to
link_tobias(at)web.de. Only people sending me a
climbing resume will be considered as a
participant - no exceptions!
This trip is part of the Rock Review 2014 and
participant need to be signed up for this event as
well. We might even meet out at the Canoe Meadows
Camground the day before to sign waivers and
distribute gear so we can get a nice and early
start the next day.

Cancellation/Partial Attendance:
Please review our participant responsibility guidelines!
Cancellation Policy
If a participant is unable to attend a paid course or trip, there will be no refund unless the participant finds a suitable replacement that is acceptable to the trip coordinator. Acceptable waiting list candidates will have priority. It will then be the participant's responsibility to recover funds from the replacement. If the coordinator cancels an event, participants get a refund (less any non-recoverable costs). Note that ACC National does not refund hut fees due to weather, delay, closures, or any other reasons. The Calgary Section of the ACC is a not for profit club and we only charge attendees what it costs us to provide courses or trips.
