"Windy Slabs is one of the more classic slabby
routes on the West End [of Yam]. It was the
second of three routes established by John
Martin in October 1968". 260m, 6 pitches, 2
stars.
At least one participant needs to have
experience seconding multi-pitch trad, so email
me a short climbing bio of the past year.
Everyone needs to have a good level of fitness
to hike half way up Yam and be comfortable
descending on scree. We'll be climbing with our
own backpacks, so pack light.

*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.
