This clinic will cover building climbing anchors in different scenarios including tree anchor systems, sport climbing/bolted anchors, and traditional rock anchors with cams and nuts in a single pitch type environment.. Familiarity of top rope and lead climbing as well as equipment listed below recommended.
This clinic will expand on the skills needed to assist an injured climber and or to have the knowledge in how to handle a given assist situation. We will be covering self rescue techniques that focus on rescue from above, including counter weighted rappels, assisted hoist, and mechanical hoist. These are skills that would apply to scenarios such as crevasse terrain, top belay, and multi pitch climbing.
This course is for the current top rope or lead climber, mountaineer, canyoneer, or outdoor enthusiast that is wanting to expand current knowledge on ascending ropes, friction knots, and proper rappel and belay techniques.
Every year we rally in the fall to get together for some laughs, catching up, and talk about the ice season to come. We also have a list of “to dos’ that accumulate over time to improve the place for the coming season. The leaves are starting to change so it's time to get busy! We’ll be wood chopping, painting, fence hanging, and making a few updates to the tower. No tools or skills necessary, but both could be helpful. Lunch is on us and we are going to 5p and we typically give a day pass of climbing ice to say thanks for your help. Any timeframe that you can make that day is great!
