Intro to Multi-Pitch Climbing

Take your climbing to new heights with this intro to multi pitch climbing course!

Take your climbing to new heights with this two-day Intro to Multi-Pitch Climbing course!

Multi-pitch rock climbing is perhaps the most exhilarating experience available to climbers. There is something special about the exposure one feels while hanging from the side of a cliff 60 meters above the ground and feeling totally comfortable.

Our Introduction to Multi-Pitch Climbing Course will take you on a guided tour of the highest points of the crag. You will learn how to properly belay climber from the top and the basics of building anchors and rappelling from a multi-pitch route.  You will learn some simple rope management techniques that will help you save time to maximize your day.

Though multi-pitch climbing is an amazing experience, there is risk involved and it is important to understand the risk factors and safety issues involved in the activity. In our multi-pitch courses, you will be introduced to the most essential climbing techniques. Skills discussed will include proper multi-pitch belaying, special multi-pitch safety concerns, fall factor, building safe anchors, minimum equipment needs, special and advanced climbing knots, falling on multi-pitch, catching falls on multi-pitch, setting up rappel anchors, rappelling, rappelling back-up systems, and equipment maintenance.

This course is ideal for experienced climbers who have not yet done any multi-pitch climbing, or students who have progressed through top rope and lead climbing programs. This course may also be appropriate for very strong gym climbers who have not yet experienced high exposure in the outdoor setting.

Safe, highly trained, lead climbing experience

While this group costs more than the competitors group, I was able to observe Gee's technique against the other outfits guides and Gee was much safer and practiced under the Colorado Mountain School (US) standards.

CMRCA is the best!

I can say that going out to Crazy Horse Was by far one of the highlights of my trip.

Intro to Caving was great!
