Hey Everyone,

Welcome to the Base5 route-setting blog,

The goal of this blog is to offer an inside look at the route-setting program at Climb Base5!

The first order of business is to introduce myself. My name is Kaleb Thomas and I am the “new” head route-setter at Climb Base5. If you are more interested in where I came from, how long I’ve have been setting and other information feel free to check out my “Bio” HERE.

With this blog our goal is to bring you weekly content, that takes you into the mind of our route-setting crew. We will post photos of new routes, videos of really tricky sequences, and offer descriptions and beta cheats for the routes and problems that are driving you crazy! We are also going to offer insight on certain changes we are making through out the gym; we are constantly trying to push what we do with the program and we want to open up the dialogue between the setters and climbers to offer the most comprehensive setting product in the lower mainland.

Stay tuned for our first weekly update!
