Ice Climbing Initiation – Full Day (6h30)

0

For climbers with some experience or beginners looking for a solid challenge, we are now offering a full day initiation to ice climbing.

  • Approximately 6 Hours 30 Minutes
  • Reservation Required | Places Limited

Overview

Our course includes all necessary climbing equipment, so all you need to bring is a few essentials: lunch, snacks, water, good clothing and a sense of adventure. Our fully certified guide will start the lesson by getting you geared up. Once everyone is ready, you’ll spend about 30 minutes on technical training before taking the 15-minute hike to the ice wall.

Then the real fun starts! The next 3.5 hours will include an introduction to ice climbing and all the equipment. Our guides will teach you the proper way to climb, as well as the proper techniques for belaying and rappelling. You will have the chance to climb and descend several times over the course of the lesson.

Your day finishes up with the hike back to the cabin to return the equipment.
