Learn the Fundamentals of Multipitch Rock Climbing in Wyoming!

This upper level course introduces participants to the skills, systems, and principles of decision making needed for multipitch rock climbing.  This intensive two or three-day course involves a collaborative planning process, research and preparation for multiple climbs, plenty of systems work, and lots of climbing on beautiful multipitch terrain. We recommend taking our Intro to Rock Climbing Course and Trad Climbing Course prior to enrolling in this advanced course, as the course requires foundational knowledge of climbing safety systems and solid base of climbing fitness.
