Description

This is a 1 day course designed for competent indoor climbers, or with experience of climbing outdoors and help develop their outdoor trad climbing. This is not an ‘Introduction to Rock Climbing Course‘, so you need to have some indoor or outdoor bottom roped experience, and be competent with bottom rope belaying. Perfect preparation for this course would be the Introduction to Rock Climbing, 1 Day Course.

This is not a ‘Learn to Lead‘ course, but it is part of the journey to become competent at leading trad rock climbs. It is a development course, moving on from the ‘Intro’ course or that level of skills.

  • A review of safe & competent Bottom Roping Belaying (from the bottom of the climb)
  • Placing and removing traditional gear
