OVERVIEW

Greetings from Newcomb Dining Hall as I write this trip description,

Did you know ben “jamin” franklin invented swim fins? That fact won me a trivia night at a swim team dinner junior year of high school, I hope that information serves you all as well as it did for me. Did you know where Ben did not ever travel to that you now have the chance to? You’ll never guess so don’t even try. Anyways, I’ve been meaning to climb here and I’ve heard it’s pretty awesome. There’s a badass 5.9+ called “blood sweat & chalk” that I wanna do in particular, but a good amount of climbs both harder and easier than that, if 5.9 ain’t ya thang. The prerequisites we ask is just that you are able to sport (lead) climb and lead belay (with a grigri in particular). No outdoor experience necessary and no particular level of difficult climbing ability needed.

You should bring
Climbing shoes
Chalk
Harness
Helmet

We will bring
Ropes
Draws
Belay devices
Stoke and motivation to push your physical and mental limits in a safe and awesome way that sport climbing does (we will not bully you if you bail, don’t worry)

We need a driver so priority to whomever can do that for us, and I’d like to get introduce more people to outdoor climbing if possible so maybe priority if you’ve never climbed outside of a gym
