Skills discussed will include lead belaying, catching a fall, falling, proper clipping techniques, the risks of back-clipping, proper rope-management, tying a rope through the anchor, advanced rock climbing knots, resting while climbing, proper clipping stances, and more advanced climbing techniques.

By the end of this course, you will be more comfortable with falling, catching falls, lead belaying, climbing on difficult terrain, pushing your limits, knowing your limits, and more advanced climbing movement.

This course is ideal for those who have some lead experience but are still quite nervous on lead. It is also ideal for experienced gym climbers who wish to gain some exposure to outdoor climbing.

Multi-Pitch rock climbing

anchor changing climbing chiang maiMulti-pitch rock climbing is perhaps one of the most exhilarating experiences 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.

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 is also ideal for gym climbers who may not yet have experienced high exposure in the outdoor setting.

*Climbers must demonstrate a working knowledge of critical lead climbing skills including belaying, clipping, and climbing knots or have taken a lead climbing class before participating in a Multi-pitch course.

Self Rescue

Understanding the risks associated with the sport allow climbers to successfully prevent major accidents.

Techniques and skills discussed will include escaping the belay, aiding a victim, lowering an injured climber, raising an injured climber with a pulley system, building safety and rescue anchors, rappelling with an injured victim, minimum safety rescue equipment, improvised techniques for carrying an injured victim to safety, and more if time permits.

Rock Climbing: Essential Skills &...

climbing The official instructional guide for rock climbers. A reference tool for those who wish to climb, instruct, coach and lead.

Libby Peters has produced an excellent book to cover everything from the basics to advanced techniques. The illustrations are clear and linked to the appropriate text, the photographs are good quality and cover a variety of areas throughout the UK. A minor gripe is that the book seems poorly indexed, however despite this niggle I'm happy to recommend the book unreservedly to my clients. The book makes me want to go and climb which surely is the best endorsement.
