Preference for Seattle climbing community, though anyone may request permission (but you might end up on the waitlist). 

All inquiries sent before registration open date will be ignored. When requesting permission (as a participant or leader) please indicate the range of difficulty you are interested in climbing, either on top rope or on lead. That will help me form a compatible group and help determine which crag(s) we visit. Participants should have experience belaying a climber on top rope. You either need to have top rope belay badge with The Mountaineers, or you have a top-rope belay card with Vertical World/Edgework. Assistant leaders should be able to lead belay and to lead sport routes and can bring a rope and quickdraws.

Note that to be consistent with latest climbing "best practices", I am requiring that you use an assisted braking device (ADB) belay device on this trip.  If you don't have one, let me know ahead of time and you may be able to borrow one.  Examples include: Grigri, Pilot, Jul. Here's a link to some additional info on appropriate ABD devices: https://www.sourceclimbing.com/abd
