Anchors and Rappelling

These clinics will help you get as excited as Michael was about this nut he’s hanging on.

Learning how to build anchors and how to rappel efficiently and safely are two essential tools to have in your kit as a climber.

Rappelling allows us to retreat off of climbs and retrieve all of our gear in the process. In this half day class we’ll practice rappelling on belay, and discuss various methods of rappelling and ways to retrieve your gear after you do so!

Anchor building can be complex and arduous. However, your anchor is often the only thing between you and the ground. It HAS to be solid. So in this clinic we will discuss anchoring strategies, how to evaluate an anchor, and ways to expedite the anchoring process.
