Activity Notes
Let's Climb Mt Hubris.
6 Pitches of nice Northern California Rock.Perhaps the best 5.6 in California, this incredible 5-pitch climb, pioneered by SMG Founder Michael Zanger with Himalayan Legend Chris Bonington, climbs the imposing 800′ east face of Mt. Hubris aka “The Ogre” in Castle Crags State Park. With everything from slabs, face, cracks, and a dramatic and exposed alpine ridge finish, this climb is sure to satisfy everyone from new to experienced climbers.
We will either run three teams of two or teams of three depending on applications. This climb is specially targeted at AR and ICS Grads. BCEP Graduates that have outdoor climbing experience will be considered.
