Classes are limited to three students per instructor. Safe leading depends on good solid anchors for both protection and belays. The focus of this course is on protection placement and the construction of anchors to protect both the leader and the second. Also emphasized will be route-finding, descent and retreat techniques, rope management, and other topics and techniques that will help the student confidently advance his or her ability. The leading done by students is backed up by the security of a rope from above for your safety and to fulfill our insurance carrier's requirements.
