| Itinerary: |
|
We'll be climbing Plutonium Shores on Raven
Crag (above Cave and Basin). There is a 30-45
min approach, 7 pitches of 5.7-5.9 sport
climbing bolted anchors, and a walk-off
descent. Participants must be competent at
belaying a leader. While not required to lead,
participants should be able to comfortably
climb up to 5.9 outdoors and be on the move for
4-6 hours. A mix of relative beginners and
more experienced participants are welcome to
join. If I haven't climbed
with you recently, please send a description of
your experience level & abilities including
relevant climbs you have been on in the past.

| Required Items to Bring: |
|
Climbing gear (can discuss in detail with
selected participants), and a backpack you are
comfortable climbing with. We won't be
returning to the start of the climb, so
everything you bring is coming up & over with
us - choose wisely!

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.
