Description:

The emphasis of course is to provide students with the basic skills needed to climb safely with a group in a range of environments from sport rock climbing to alpine mountaineering. The course will prepare students to travel on glaciers, negotiate steep slopes of rock and snow, and participate in Obsidian climbs. This course is not meant to train people to lead groups on rock or glaciers but rather to be a safe team member.

The course consists of three classroom sessions and two field sessions covering introduction to rock climbing and snow skills. The class is limited to 30 participants. You must be 16 or older to participate; but will need a parent or guardian signature if under 18. Please see the Climbs page of the Obsidians webpage for more detail.
