Climb as many cracks as we can until we're
tired at the U of C indoor climbing wall.
There is a class going on
at 4pm so if you're arriving late you may not
get as much climbing in.
If you have climbed at U of C before, please
bring your belay certification card. If you
haven't, please be prepared to complete the
orientation and belay test. The belay test is
offered at 11am and 1 pm on Sunday.
On your first visit and prior to accessing the
wall, you must:
Sign a liability waiver.
Demonstrate your ability to put on an
approved harness, tie in with a figure-8 knot,
belay safely using proper checks and
communication as well as catch a planned and a
surprise fall.
Complete a gym orientation
This process takes between 10 and 20 minutes.
Once completed, a climbing card is issued to
you.
Please Note: There is no instruction given
during the Belay Test.
Required Items to Bring:
harness, belay device, climbing shoes, TAPE.
Please bring your own tape. It can take a
significant amount of tape to do both hands.
Recommended Items to Bring:
chalk, water bottle
