Description
Ghost Rock
3rd edition
Front Range Rock Climbs Near Calgary
by Andy Genereux
Ghost Rock is a guide to sport and multi-pitch rock
climbs in the Ghost River and Waiparous Creek areas west
of Calgary. It gives detailed route descriptions, along
with chapter by chapter parking access and approach
details.
By local standards, the Ghost has climbing on above
average rock. Even with 200 new routes since the first
edition it is still, however, woefully underdeveloped.
Already a mecca for ice climbers, the Ghost is fast
becoming one of the premier rockclimbing areas in
Western Canada. It is a virtual candy store of new
routes and will remain so for some time to come. Over 35
kilometres of steep cliff line, coupled with its remote
and relatively wild nature, make for an unforgettable
rock climbing experience. |
