Some evenings will include a slide shows and lectures by local climbers. Our core curriculum combines daily activity in the mountains and on the rocks with evening bonding. The instruction begins at the most fundamental level and advances through the use of running belays. Intermediate and advanced classes focus on more advanced climbing and anchoring technique as the campers desire. All classes touch on rope management, safe belays, group dynamics, decision making, and self rescue skills.
Books are necessary for some of the camps, and are provided.
All students will receive a written skills and safety assessment at the end of the week.
