| Itinerary: |
Weather looks good Sunday so the plan is to
climb Plutonian 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. Note I've not climbed this route but
am comfortable leading this grade. If I haven't
climbed with you before please send a
description of your climbing experience &
abilities including recent multi-pitch climbs.
The topo for the route is:

| Required Items to Bring: |
|
Helmet, harness, shoes, belay device, personal
sling.
|
|
| Recommended Items to Bring: |
|
Personal stuff (e.g. jacket, water, food,
headlamp, sunscreen, backpack you can climb
with). We don't return to the start of the
climb so everything you bring is coming up &
over - pack 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.
