Expect a day of climbing 5.7-5.10a crack (trad), slab or sports routes in the Squamish area. There should be opportunities for both leading and top-roping... depending on skill levels.
All participants must bring their personal climbing gear... including: harness, belay device, locking biner, climbing shoes, and helmet. Also recommend plenty of water and energy snacks.
Ropes & anchor material for this event are provided by participants and not by the club. If you have a full strength climbing rope and anchor material, please do bring it.
While the more experienced climbers are usually happy to share their knowledge, this is not a climbing course.
