This Alpine
Mentorship Event is called pre-AMP because it is
for people new to outdoor multi-pitch climbing.
The only
pre-requisite is that you have done some
climbing
and leading outside up to 5.8. This event
will allow you to safely transition to multi-
pitch
climbing. The curriculum for the day is as
follows: multi-pitch practice including building
anchors, tie into anchors, bringing up a second,
rope management and descending a route.
Since this
event is for beginners we will not be screening
participants. Who pays first, gets to go.

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.
