Intro
Prerequisites
None

We will be going over how to safely build Top-Rope Anchors. The skills covered will be mostly focused on anchors at a sport crag but we will cover other situations such as building anchors off of trees as well.

Requirements

While this TRS has no requirements beyond being a current MITOC member climbers who are only just starting out might not get as much out of this. This session will be aimed at folks who are looking to start leading indoors. Folks who lead inside and are hoping to make the jump to outdoor climbing are ideal.

When/Where

We will meet at the MITOC office from 18:00 to ~19:00 on Wednesday, October 24th. Expect this to take an hour or two.

Gear

If you have the following gear, please bring it.

  • Harness
  • Belay Device
  • Cordelette
  • Tubular Webbing
  • 4 lockers

Note: If space fills up folks in the MRP will get priority.
