This course equips climbers with the fundamental movement techniques for crack climbing from thin to wide sizes. This course covers essentials like, warming up, taping, body positioning, jamming, friction, rock assessment, and route reading. Our instructors will provide low-risk environments for practicing and to review the skills you will need to continue climbing in different cracks. We’ll also discuss the desert environment and how to plan for your adventures with a leave-no-trace mindset.
This is a climbing-intensive course. All of our course time will be spent either climbing or belaying at a single pitch crag. Come prepared to choose your challenge and support others!
