Over the six days, which will be spread over blocks this winter, you will climb and abseil, focus on climbing techniques and communication, use different methods of belaying, use a range of climbing equipment, learn to place gear, set up a climb and lead climb.

At the end of this course you will be able to use a guide book, lead climb while placing gear, set up a climb, plus second a climb and remove gear. You will also know what equipment is necessary to be a self sufficient lead climber.

Learning to place gear safely; such as wires, hexes and friends; is a long apprentice style journey, which generally is done under the careful supervision of a more experienced climbing partner. This element of lead climbing in specific cannot be rushed, and while you will be a lead climber at the end of our intensive course; safe gear placement will be a learning journey that will continue long after your climbing course.
