I've booked the University of Calgary climbing gym
for two hours on January 19th, 10:00 to 12:00 am
for us to practice climbing photography. The
intent is to practice climbing photography and
associated rigging in a neutral area, to improve
for outdoor climbing situations. Since the artist
is typically behind the camera, any camera will
work. We can take turns climbing, belaying, and
taking pictures, but if anyone wants to be a
climbing model or to help belay, that is ok too.
The cost is $10.00 for the two hours and once our
time is over, climbers can still use the gym for
the rest of the day. However, once our time is
over, we can’t continue to do photography due to
equipment falling hazards. Since we only have two
hours to practice rigging, it would be helpful to
do some research beforehand to determine how to
setup and what type of pictures you are interested
in. I will bring waivers to the event to sign
before we start.
Required Items to Bring:
camera, helmet, harness, belay device, Chalk,
climbing shoes, whatever else you think you need to
hang around on the side of the wall
*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.
