About Dustin:
Over the course of my setting career, I’ve had the opportunity to attend and host multiple setting clinics. I have always found that these events have helped grow and shape the setter I have become. With my move back to the GTA, after 5 years of working and learning from our counter parts out west, I want to help foster and grow the route setting community so that we can rise to the challenge and demand of the continually growing climbing industry. I have been very fortunate to have had the experiences of setting at the highest level of national and international competition, as well as having the opportunities to have worked with some of the best setters in the world. I’ve had many years of working in over 10 commercial facilities, refining what I believe to be good commercial route setting.
Now, I would like the opportunity to help grow and develop the setting community here in Ontario, and to share those experiences with other setters in a creative and collaborative environment.
