Outdoor climbing courses!
We’re holding two new outdoor climbing courses: one for beginners and one for advanced climbers able to take on 5.9 or greater or who have completed last year’s beginners’ course.
The beginners will gain some top rope training and belaying, the advanced group will learn how to run lead climbing including sport leading and trad leading (time allowing).
If you want in, bring $100 to the climbing club gym in Kam Lake. There’s only 12 spots in total, with six for each class.
Both groups will be meeting at Big Crack, more details are available here:
