One of the essentials of safe climbing is the ability to create and/or identify safe anchors. This class will give you hands on instruction on how to build a solid top rope anchor. If you are building your own anchors, or climbing on a friend's anchor, you owe it to yourself (and your mother) to take this class.Our class takes place outdoors in Berkeley at Cragmont Park, and is designed to be very hands on. You will be learning by doing. You will be building anchors throughout the day, and having those anchors critiqued by our professional guide and instructor. All necessary anchoring gear will be provided. You are welcome to bring your own gear if you’d like to practice placing gear and building anchors with your own rack.
In this class we introduce gear placements, too. You'll learn how to place a nut, cam, or hex. You'll have opportunities to practice placing this gear (gear is provided), and will be able to critique other people's gear placements. At the end of the day you will have the knowledge to set up your own anchors, in just about any situation- bolts, cracks, trees, etc. You'll also have a cordolette you can keep, to get your anchor kit started!
