"Starring at the blank wall before you
and grab the tiny handhold
then stand up to touch the jug

Reaching for some crimp in distance
so close you can almost skip it
now start your sending mission

Feel the chalk on your skin"

Hey friends, I have some awesome news!
The Kermode cave is excited to announce that there is now a training-for-climbing group.

This group is for intermediate-advanced climbers who cannot adequately train in the kermode cave due to the business and limited open-hours. Members of this group will be able to climb in the cave outside of the regular cave open hours, so long as they meet the following criteria:

• Experience bouldering and climbing at an advanced level.
• Provides proof of climbing and/or competing at an advanced level (e.g., resume of routes completed and or/
list of current competition schedule).
• Provides current list of climbing goals and S.M.A.R.T. action steps to achieve them.
• Demonstrates proficiency and competency to boulder unmonitored in the Cave through the successful
observation checklist performed by the Cave Manager / Recreation Manager.

Email me [email protected] if you are interested and I will send you the training agreement letter and more details!

The Kermode Cave is now live on the Stōkt App!
Our steppest wall is now connected to an app that lets you select holds and make climbs. Download the app to see climbs that others have created or set your own climbs. Make a climb for yourself, make a climb for a friend, or just make a climb for fun and save it on the Stōkt App!

Who wants to set some routes in the Kermode Cave this year?

The Kermode Cave is currently looking for some volunteers to make re-setting a reality in the near future!

Route-setting is an awesome way to improve technical climibng skills and it's a ton of fun. No setting experience is required, however, having 2+ years of bouldering experience (indoor or outdoor) is preferred.

If you are interested, fill out a form here: https://portal.questu.ca/nacad/forms/Lists/Recreation%20%20Wellness%20Volunteer%20Interest%20Form/Item/newifs.aspx

If you are not interested, tag 2 friends who might be.
