Description
Accurately dubbed the crown jewel of traditional climbing in the Canadian Rockies, Mt Yamnuska (also known as Îyâmnathka and Mt John Laurie) has been a key theater of the development of Canadian climbing since the first ascent of its southeast face in 1952. Though "only" 350m high or so, Yamnuska has a lot of adventure to offer with its limestone of variable quality, exciting protection, challenging routefinding and Canadian weather!
This poster is the most complete of the cliff to date, showing almost every route in Andy Genereux's 2016 guidebook, as well as, for the first time, the Girdle traverse (It's All McConnell's Fault). There is also a version with only the Kallen 34.
