Join us on Sunday, October 20th, for a day of climbing, community, and conservation at one of the Bow Valley's most beloved crags—Echo Canyon!
It is not a secret that Echo Canyon is one of the most popular climbing destinations in the Bow Valley and rightfully so with some of the best climbing in the area. With one of the longer approaches in the Bow Valley, Echo has been a convenient place for seasonal gear to be stored.
As the season comes to a close in Echo Canyon, we are inviting all of those who maintain seasonal gear throughout the season to come out for a day of climbing and an opportunity to help clean up the various sectors of Echo by hiking down some gear that may sit stagnant over the winter months.
This event will not only be a great chance to check your rope, and draws but this day will demonstrate to land owners and stakeholders how we are proactive in taking care of our crags and really care about the sustainability of our sport by hiking out garbage and abandoned gear.As always please ensure you are writing your name and date on gear.
Schedule:
- 9:30 AM: Meet at the Echo parking lot for hiking, climbing, and gear clean-up
- 4:00 PM: Social and debrief at Sheepdog Brewery 🍻
Let’s come together to protect our climbing spots and keep Echo Canyon pristine!
