New Routes on Great Sail Peak

-

In June and July, Marc-Andre Leclerc, Brette Harrington and Joshua Lavigne climbed new routes on Great Sail Peak. The first was Northwest Turret 5.13a A2 21 pitches and the second was The West Buttress of Great Sail peak 5.12a C1 1,100 m. After they returned to civilizati­on, Harrington said, “Six weeks of load carrying, paddling rafts with headwinds, trekking over frozen lakes and climbing granite big walls, being back on the grid comes with quite a change in pace.”
