Calamari Crack, 5.9, 280m

Submitted by BP on Sat, 06/25/2011 - 20:25

A great route climbing a broken up series of cracks and chimneys in an area that could reveal some hard slab routes!
Approach: As for Upper Norquay to Escargot Corner
Gear: 2 X 60m Ropes, standard rack to four inches.

Updated version of Sunshine Slab area topo previously posted. The shortest approach in the Rockies, located at the intersection of Healy Creek and the Sunshine Ski Area access road. Be careful not to damage bolt hangers when opening your car door.

Sunshine Rock- Updated topos, Fall 2014

Submitted by Chris.Perry on Sun, 11/30/2014 - 17:40

About a dozen new routes have been added and the base of Corral (Paddock) Wall Right was severely undercut in the 2013 flood. Topos are correct as of this Fall (2014) but some information is missing with regard to grades and first ascents. Please comment on Tabvar Facebook.
Note: New routes are identified by blue type.

Mt Cory South Peak, West Face

Submitted by Mark Klassen on Fri, 05/29/2015 - 13:03

Two routes in the Cory Crack area: Mountaineer's Route (9-13 pitches plus some scrambling, 5.8 or 5.7), this is all bolted but not a beginner's route. It's more like the Kain Route on Mt Louis.

Hoka Hey (9 pitches, 5.8), mixed bolts and gear on mostly good to excellent rock.

Raven Crag Update

Submitted by Mark Klassen on Fri, 05/29/2015 - 13:32

Updated topo for bolted multi-pitch climbs on Raven's Crag. Plutonian Shores (5.9 - new in 2012), Lost Lenore (5.10d - new in 2013), The Raven (upgraded to 5.11c due to a broken foothold - fully refitted in 2014).
