This weekend is about empowering women and genderqueer climbers, and their allies.   As with all our Bon Echo weekends, everyone is welcome.  Please respect the goal of fostering a safe space.  There will be a limited number of spots open for those identifying as women and genderqueer who are new to Bon Echo or new to trad to be paired with a mentor/leader.  Please indicate during sign up if you need a mentor/leader, or a partner.

The cliff at Bon Echo is in a beautiful setting, rising 300 feet out of Lake Mazinaw. There is a large number of existing trad routes, from 5.0 to 5.12. However, there is no sport climbing.

Because the cliff lies within a provincial park, there are rules that must be observed (mandatory helmets is one). Make yourself familiar with them at the section website:
