LADIES WEEKEND OUT // INTRO TO ROCK RESCUE CLINIC
INFO & REGISTRATION
Building a strong foundation is a key component when developing your skills as a climber and setting yourself up for success in any Belaytionship. Prepare for the unexpected with our Intro to Rock-Rescue clinic. Learn vital rock rescue skills, including lowering a partner, escaping a belay, ascending a rope and other techniques to manage climbing emergencies effectively. This hands-on clinic provides the tools and knowledge to navigate tricky situations safely, giving you greater independence and peace of mind on the rock.
Our new skills clinics series being offered are designed to equip you with the tools needed for any adventure ahead. Each weekend will run on Saturday and Sunday, with a 4:1 climber-to-guide ratio to ensure personalized attention. While accommodations aren't included, we have a range of excellent recommendations for camping or glamping around Bishop to suit your preferences.
These courses are progression courses, where they build off each other with the goal to create a solid foundational skill set for any rock climbing adventure ahead.
Each clinic is led by AMGA-trained guides and designed to support climbers of all levels. Join us for a weekend of skill-building, personalized instruction, and connection with a community of like-minded women.
