Niveaux de difficultés
Voici un guide pour aider les organisateurs d’excursion et les membres de la section Montréal du CAC à déterminer le niveau de difficulté d’une activité. La grille qui suit servira également aux participants à trouver une activité qui convient à leur niveau.
Cette grille est uniquement un aperçu. Les caractéristiques spécifiques d’une activité peuvent affecter son niveau de difficulté.
Escalade de Roche
| Niveau | Description |
|---|---|
| Débutant | Top roping up to 5.6 Single pitch leading up to 5.4 |
| Intermediate | Top roping up to 5.9 Sport climbing up to 5.9 Single pitch leading up to 5.7 Multipitch leading up to 5.4 |
| Strong Intermediate | Single pitch leading up to 5.10 Multipitch leading up to 5.8 |

Notez que la difficulté d’accès d’un site ou le multi longueurs ont tendance à augmenter le sérieux d’une excursion.
