Routes in Kananaskis Country

Enjoyable little trad climb on an otherwise sport climbing dominant crag. Short but sweet, standard set of black diamond stopper nuts should do the job.

Climb the left facing corner crack through a shallow chimney to the first ledge and start of the corner offwidth crack. The crack is short but well worth the effort. Climb the crack to the upper ledge. The chains can be found on the left facing wall about 1.5m above the upper ledge. A few large CAMALOTS C4 #5- #7 will eliminate the run out in the upper wife section.

Solo some 5.9 to a silly high first bolt and a crux Traverse and bulge.. Climb a fun crack from a huge rest to a very run out ending.

A technical climb with a distinct crux on the bulge. Great grippy rock. Lots of edges and crimps! Was only 4bolts in 25m. Now it's is 8 and climbs modern and safely. Completely rebolted 2017 by Mason Tessier.

Straight up past channel zero anchor.

Extension above M.E.C. Crank the powerful Roof! The crimps over the roof broke since the FA a few times, thus warranting 5.13.

Up and right from anchor of Recipe for Poutine

Beauty technical face climbing the entrie way (climbs longer then the height depicts). This route has some amazing movement and some very very fingery holds. Hard to believe it gets 12A! Enjoy a 1980's test piece

A v5 boulder problem over the roof.

The extension above Blank On The Map. A Rockies hidden gem. Beautiful technical climbing with a lower powerful Crux

Shares first bolt with One Way to Wangland then heads left to share anchor with I Drill Therefore I Am, and Shadow Play

Climb Current Account and continue up and left along the flake. Bring a medium/large nut to protect the top or run it out. Second the pitch and make two raps to reach the ground.

This brilliant route tackles the long, flake crack that rises above Beautiful Rainbow. It's a must do and gains an excellent position. Lower twice to get down

Shares first bolt with There Goes the Neighbourhood then goes left. Shares anchor with Serial Driller.

Gear to 1.5"

The Bow-valley’s test piece of steep slab. The very obvious looking blank slab left of Beautiful rainbow. For being Fa’d in the 80’s this is a really cool part of Canadian classic sport climbing. If you think you are proficient at technical climbing, this is your final exam!

Clip the first two bolts of End Dance and head left. Up this face then head up the right facing corner.

Follow the obvious cracks to the anchor below Fat Boy. You can find perfect finger locks and smooth stemming will have you gliding to the anchor. It is well worth the effort.

climb end danc to the anchor, then move steadily up the overhanging bulgy arete features. You will need to find and make use of all the stemming opportunities or else you will find that the pump will get you by the end.

Starts to the right of end dance. A very balancey, powerful crux over the bulge end at the roof. Crank the bouldery roof to a easier finish. Great quality
