All Day: Women's Multi-Pitch Rock Climbing
Get stuck into a 'full day out' multi-pitch rock climbing on a classic high mountain crag in the Lake District. Learn how to develop your trad climbing skills, manage ropes, belays, gear placements, general crag safety and abseiling.
This is a great clinic for those climbers wishing to develop their skills and experience multi-pitch trad. climbing. It is also great for those who would like to develop skills to become more independent. We'll look at route choice, the extra equipment needed and things to think about when multi-pitch climbing, all whilst climbing one of the classic routes in the Great Langdale Valley. A big barrier for people can be how to set up a belay part way up a climb and how to manage the ropes safely or what happens if you need to descend part way up a climb. We'll address some of these issues to help give you some of those skills and confidence to tackle similar climbs in the future independently.
Joining the clinic will be MSR ambassador Kieran Creevy. Kieran will show you how to refuel and rehydrate with your own nutrition focused soup using a few ingredients.
Sample menu:
Mexican tortilla soup; with corn tortillas, lime, tomato, and garlic.
The day will run -
9am to 5pm - Sunday (FULL)
