Description

Thursday Night Climbing in Squamish – everybody is welcome!

We do have the club ropes for this trip.

We will be climbing at one of the crags in the Smoke Bluffs or Murrin Park that offer climbs with a wide range of difficulties and opportunities for lead climbing and top-roping. If the weather turns out to be such that rock climbing is not possible, this event will get cancelled on Thursday morning. Check back here then!

We meet at 4pm in the parking lot of St. David’s church at the Taylor Way exit of Hwy 1. From there we carpool to Squamish, the Smokes Bluffs or Murrin Park, the decision where to go is made around 4pm at the carpool location. If you like to meet us in Squamish directly please send a text to the organizer (778-918-3639) before 4pm to find out where we are going.

There is also an ACC Thursday Night Climbing Whatsapp group to share photos, etc. We’ll also post the location of the crag where we are going there. Send an email to the organizer [email protected], if you want to join that Whatsapp group.

If you are not an ACC member, please download this waiver, read it, sign it and bring it with you to the event. This is required for joining the group on Thursdays, but it needs to be done only once each year.

Necessary Equipment: climbing harness, helmet, belay device, climbing shoes
