And must have a sport climbing rating by the time the event happens. There will be some opportunity for multi-pitch climbing.

The trip leader will make extra effort to accommodate any restrictions as well. Hoofer Mountaineering will provide all the ropes, quick draws, anchor setting materials, and stick clips
