Description
NOTE: This description needs to be updated since we split the course into 1 and 2. The below skills are for the full 4-day course, so stay tuned for a description that properly distributes them!
This 4-day advanced course expands on your existing trad-climbing and multi-pitching skills, tackling walls that take days to complete. Your guide will be accredited IFMGA mountain guide Hamid Shafaghi. We’ll cover these topics:
- Climbing and belaying with twin and half-ropes
- Re-belays
- Small and large pendulums – how to follow a pendulum
- Aid climbing
- Hauling on the wall and pulley system
- Bivvy on the wall and portaledge
- How to draw the topo of a route (theory)
Prerequisites: trad climbing and multi-pitching skills.
NOTE: this is an ALL-WEATHER course. You don’t have the choice when rain comes in on a big wall, so we can run this one in rain, hail or shine!
