Introduction to Traditional Rock Climbing
Introduction to Traditional Rock Climbing focuses on climbing outside on real rock. The course covers knots, rock climbing equipment, belaying, rappelling, climbing commands, and movement on rock. A classroom session ( when available) provides a comprehensive overview and we have two field sessions. Depending on your level of experience, we can tailor the class to focus on your specific skill interests.
Our first session at Rocky Butte Park in Portland, gives us a chance for hands-on practice for all of our skills. The next day we head out to Horse Thief Butte in the Scenic Columbia River Gorge for a day of one pitch climbing on solid basalt. Includes instructors, transportation to Horse Thief Butte, and climbing equipment.
Price: 1 person - $700, 2-3 persons - $350 each, 3-6 persons - $250 each. Includes instructors, round-trip transportation from the Portland area, and individual and group rock climbing equipment.
We can conduct this class anytime an instructor is available. Call (877) 965-5100 or e-mail us to schedule.
