Intermediate Sport Climbing Clinic

Hey Folks,

Join Fiona and I for an intermediate-focussed sport climbing clinic at Hillbilly Hollow on Sunday, April 14th! We will meet at the circle of Memorial Union at 8 am and head out shortly after. Our return time is flexible, but we hope to be done relatively early considering that people have homework on Sundays.

Bring your own snacks, lunch, and plenty of water!! And be prepared to venmo $5-10 for gas/van rental.

All are welcome, but we are planning to focus on gaining comfortability in already known sport climbing techniques. We will focus on cleaning, rappelling, and safely whipping, and we will offer tips for clipping and belaying. To get the most out of this clinic, participants should have a basic understanding of sport climbing and ideally climb around a 5.9 grade (in a gym). That said, do not get too hung up on that; our main goal is to gain comfortability.

Beginners and new climbers hoping to learn sport, do not fret! Keep your eyes peeled for standard and beginner-focussed clinics. They are coming soon!

ALSO, we are trying to get an Enterprise van so we can bring more participants, but we are currently limitted to one 5-seat car. If anyone offers to drive or if we get a van, more spots will be opened up!
