Course Content: The intent of this two-day
course is to give
participants an introduction to the intricacies
of leading and following
aid pitches. The curriculum would include:
clean-aid placements,
testing pieces, efficiency, rope ascension and
lower outs. All systems
will be practiced as mock-leads or with back-up
ropes.
This is not a beginner course so some climbing
experience is
necessary. Participants should have some of
their own rack and
should have taken a trad rock course.
