Scrambling information


Scrambling Mount Galwey in Waterton Park, Alberta, Canada

Scrambling is a mountaineering term for ascending steep terrain using one's hands to assist in holds and balance.[1] It is also used to describe terrain that falls between hiking and rock climbing (as a "scramble").[2]

Sure-footedness and a head for heights are essential. Canyoning and stream climbing both involve scrambling.
