Howdy y’all,

Are you a weirdo who likes to wake up early on the weekend and touch some cold rocks? Well, you’re in luck because I am too. This’ll be my 8th weekend in a row of leading a climbing trip, and I constantly end up teaching people about sport climbing every trip so I figured why not make an official trip to teach people. If you have learned about sport that’s ideal, but those who are confident in top rope skills and yearning to break into lead climbing are also welcome.

Also since it’ll be cold I can bring my jetboil and some hot chocolate mix, you’ll just need to bring some water for yourself, and maybe some tea or other hot beverage that you like

I would like to have one person who can lead climb/belay, and clean, but those who can only top rope are also welcome. I’ll manage the group to ensure we have enough experienced folks. (people who have been learning lead are welcome especially)

YOU BRING:
ya climbing stuff (helmet, harness, shoes, chalk)
food and snacks
at least 2 liters
appropriate clothing to be outside all day! (check the forecast, it will be cold)
^^^Layers
gloves/warm things to hold (tea)?

I’ll BRING:
ropes
draws
stick clip
grigri’s

I think that’s all, but text me if you need anything.
