Prerequisites
Know how to top rope belay on an ATC, and ideally on a MegaJul

Come join us for a beginner intro to ice climbing day! Location TBD. Open to anyone with top rope belay experience - if it's your first time ice climbing or not. You should have some winter experience.

Also open to intermediate ice climbers who might want to practice screw placements, refine technique, or just get some laps in.

Ice climbing involves minimum 50% standing around belaying, so having your cold-weather kit dialed is a necessity.

Pre-trip meeting will be on Thursday, time TBD.
