16 day Rock & Alpine
Course
This 16
days course is designed to introduce participants to all aspects of rock and
alpine climbing. It is a combination of our 2 day Top Roping & Anchor
Building Course, our 7 day Advanced Rock Week,
and our 7 day Alpine Skills Week.
Participants will leave
the course feeling comfortable undertaking self led trips of multipitch rock
climbs and intermediate alpine routes on rock, ice, and glaciated terrain.
Prerequisites:
All
that is required for this course is a basic level of fitness and a strong
desire to learn mountain skills. If you feel that you already have the skills

course cost will be adjusted accordingly.
