Crag Care is hosting another Local Legends event! For those unfamiliar, this is a night where local climbers come together to share their passion, stories, and adventures in climbing.
Join us at 7:00 on Monday, May 11th at Lowertown Brewery - grab a bite, enjoy a pint, and listen to inspiring talks from:
Sam Hem - a lifelong outdoor enthusiast, but a relatively new climber, who will share his experiences with the Ottawa climbing community, the ACC, and how he went from brand new climber to experienced route developer in just a couple of years.
Upkar Bilkhu - longtime Ottawa climber and avid traveller, whose crazy tales from his recent year-long climbing road-trip with his wife Trish and daughter Priya will help you consider what you would do if your time was all yours.
Dan Snelson - While you might know Dan from the awesome sport lines he’s developed around Calabogie and Petawawa, he also loves to travel and climb and will inspire you with his stories of big wall climbing in Yosemite.
We hope to see you there for an evening of great stories, good company, and a shared passion for climbing!
We are attempting to monitor attendance through Eventbrite (tickets are free!) so we can work with the bar to ensure we have enough seating.The link to Eventbrite is in our bio and on the story. We won’t be checking tickets, and walk-ins are welcome, but signing up will help us ensure there’s enough space.
