Skill Session fundays kick off!! Fuel your good weather itch and lets get brushed up on rope management and rescue skills. Come out and practice. I will have a few accident scenarios for the more experienced along with a review of some fundamental rope rescue techniques applicable for all types of climbing to get us kicked off. Beginners welcome but it will be most effective if you do a few minutes of research pre meeting but not necessary. (Escaping belays, hauling techniques, extended rappels, rope ascension are some things you can google)

| Required Items to Bring: |
|
Bring everything you need to practice! You will need locking and non locking biners, harnesses, belay device, personal anchor, prussic, anchor, and a few draws. I will have prussic
