Claghorn
hi alex,
i heard that your putting togther a resource for tbay climbers and that you need more info. i put up some routes at claghorn in the fall of '99 with dan green, rene lebel and peter smith, which were put into the tbay ACC newsletter at some point. that's likely your best bet for a topo and map, it's been awhile. i have some great photos, in ontario. give me a call at home if i can help, dylan said that you called but i missed you.
the routes at claghorn are really quite nice for the area, all 20-30m pitches of straight-up crack climbing, cleaned and scrubbed, with a shared station on top. peter smith and I TR'd the 5.11 face crack to the right, and it's ready for a send. to get there, walk the logging road you came in on for 1 km (guess) and struggle through the slash to a highpoint of land until you find the obvious cleaned cracks. it's a bit of a left facing corner system on the 5.8, you'll see the rest when you get there. if you walk the base of the crag you'll see them. they're way down from the established climbing, towards the highway, especially from the OB site. if your in need of photos and want to wait i'll try and get some along to you.
