If you’ve taken our first class or are already familiar with basic climbing safety (figure eight knot, harness set up, and climbing on top rope), this is a great next step. This 4-hour clinic starts with a quick review of these skills. Then we’ll teach you how to belay in a traditional ground school. Perhaps you’ve belayed a bit in a climbing gym, but only with a grigri? This is a great starting point to round out your knowledge of belaying techniques and skills, so that you may better understand the dynamics at work in a belay system.
Our level 2 class is appropriate for first-time outdoor climbers as long as they've had some indoor gym experience.
We will meet in the parking lot of Castle Rock State Park, right in front of the ranger office & parking pay station.
