Lead Climbing Refresher’s Course
You’ve led climbed before but would love a refresher course before the season kicks off? Maybe you’ve done lead climbing indoors and would love to apply your skills to the outdoors, maybe you need a reminder about how to set and clear your anchor, or maybe you just feel more comfortable going with a professional climbing instructor before going with your friends?
This trip is led by Tim Dunham, climbing instructor.
What’s the plan?
Tim will meet the group at a given train station or bus stop and will give you a lift to the crag picked for the day (if needed), where we will refresh the fundamentals of lead climbing and practice all day.
Requirements
To join this event, you need to be able to lead climb 5A routes, whether indoors or outdoors.
Insurance
It is the participant’s responsibility to get health and accident insurances that cover mountain rescue, including extreme sports. Becoming a Rega patron is highly recommended (CHF 40 per year only for emergency medical assistance from the air).
How to get there
The location will be determined the week before the course, depending on the weather forecast. It will be accessible from Zurich by public transport in less than 2 hours.
