Big Canadian Climbs on Baffin Island
Canadians Chris Brazeau and Jon Walsh enjoyed a productive summer trip to Auyuittuq National Park on Baffin Island, completing seven climbs or attempts in ultra-light style, including a couple of possible new routes or first free ascents.
Below is Walsh’s account of the climbs, with some minor editing and annotation:
Chris Brazeau and I spent four weeks this summer in Auyuittuq National Park, climbing the granite walls and ridges of the Weasel Valley. We left home with some inspiring photos, vague beta, and a lot of excitement. In the small fishing village of Pangnirtung, we met our Belgian friends Nicolas Favresse, Sean Villanueva, Olivier Favresse, and Stéphane Hanssens, as well as Silvia Vidal of Catalonia, and together we hired a boat to take us to the trailhead at the end of the fjord.
