Rock Climbing Guides | Squamish | British Columbia | Multi-Pitch Climbing

Squamish Multi-pitch Climbing -- Squamish, British Columbia

Squamish offers one of the best multi-pitch trad climbing experiences you may have in Canada. The rock is granite -- solid for trad gear.  The routes are clean and easy to access. It's a great place to develop your crack climbing skills.

Whether you are a beginner or experienced rock climber, our ACMG certified rock guides can tailor the itinerary to help you learn, improve and realize your realistic summit objectives.

If you have climbed top rope outdoors, you can follow (i.e. second) our guide to a summit. If you are able to lead climb - sport or trad - outdoors, our guide will help you improve your leading skills in multi-pitch climbs.
