Course Content: This course is aimed at scramblers, rock climbers and mountaineers who want to apply the short-roping and short-pitching techniques learned in “Intro to Short Roping” to deal with 3rd-, 4th- and easy-5th-class terrain. The focus of this course will be a climbing objective completed by two teams of two under Sean’s supervision, coaching and instruction.
Prerequisites: Participants should have completed an introduction short roping courses prior or have a strong working knowledge already of various rope handling techniques like taking in coils, terrain belays, hip belays, gear placements, lowers, etc.

Cancellation/Partial Attendance:
Please review our participant responsibility guidelines!
Cancellation Policy:
Courses are offered at a discounted rate based on a 1:6 ration of instructor to student (40% discount from standard rates). Due to the popularity of these clinics, full payment must be received to book your spot. There will be no refund for cancellations. Courses will run regardless of weather unless the guide deems conditions unsafe then either a back-up option will be executed (i.e. rock rescue in the climbing gym if torrential rain) or an appropriate date will be rescheduled. This is to be decided by the guide the evening before.
*Cancellation Policy*: If a participant is unable to attend a paid course or trip, there will be no refund unless the participant finds a suitable replacement that is acceptable to the trip coordinator. Acceptable waiting list candidates will have priority. It will then be the participant's responsibility to recover funds from the replacement. If the coordinator cancels an event, participants get a refund (less any non-recoverable costs). Note that ACC National does not refund hut fees due to weather, delay, closures, or any other reasons. The Calgary Section of the ACC is a not for profit club and we only charge attendees what it costs us to provide courses or trips.
