This is intended to be a clinic, on the basics of rope management, belay tactics, etc as it pertains to ice climbing. It will be in a cragging environment, so we can bring a bigger group.
Not suitable for total beginners, but if you have done a bit of ice cragging, and just getting into multi pitch climbing thats fine. But also open to more experienced climbers, who want to refresh their skills.
Required Items to Bring:
I will supply 1 rope and rack, so helpful if others can bring a couple more. We can sort that out depending on who signs up.
Everyone will need their own basics - tools, poons, harness, helmet, etc.
Bring lots of hot bevys and snacks - this is intended to be an instructional heavy day, with some cragging thrown in.
How to Get There:
Event Directions:
***Location: TBD. But in the bow valley.
