About Planet X:

Another 15 minutes or so past 'Canadian Forks' via a drainage to the east. The wall is spectacular in appearance: overhanging orange limestone covered in blue streaks. Currently (2003), there are only a few climbs here and they are prohibatively difficult for most (13+). However, the climbs all have halfway points before the wall steepens that yields some 5.10's and 5.11's. Likely to become the new hub of 5.13 and 5.14 sport climbing around Canmore
