COLIN
MOORHEAD'S RÉSUMÉ
Colin
Moorhead started climbing in 1987 and has called Squamish
his home area every since. He has traveled to different
parts of the world to climb and has amassed an impressive
collection of ascents over the years. Although Colin is
most recognized for his first ascents in Squamish, he
is a very well-rounded climber with strong accomplishments
in many different aspects of the sport.
