Itinerary:

Over the past 3 years I developed a brand new single pitch climbing crag that nobody knows about - until now!  26 routes ranging from 5.5 to 5.10b, 15-20m pitches, well bolted fun!  Easy approach, 25-30min on a good trail.  All of the route info is just in my head, there's no mini guidebook available yet!  Note this is a brand new crag, you will be the 3rd or 4th person to climb some of these routes - expect some dirt, possible loose rock, etc! 

Rough plan would be to meet up in Bragg Creek at about 8:30 and climb until we feel like going home, maybe 2-4PM.  Climbers of all skill levels are welcome, feel free to bring friends if you want, I can set up some ropes if you prefer to top-rope.  If you want to lead, please bring a rope, draws and a TR anchor.  The routes (especially the 5.10s) are well bolted!

If we've never met before, please send me an intro email to brendan714@gmail.com describing your climbing background and whether you'd like to lead or top-rope.  I'd like to make sure there's a good mix of participants and climbers with ropes!

Required Items to Bring:

If TR: Harness, helmet, climbing shoes, belay device (grigri preferred)

If leading: Minimum 50m rope + 10 quickdraws + TR anchor.


Recommended Items to Bring:

Lunch, water, sunscreen
