6-9 PM. Getting there a little early is a good idea.
We meet in the west side of the building (nearest the large garage doors). Enter through the single walk-in door from the parking lot. (NOTE: The other side of the building is used for other activities)
During this "lecture" we will attempt to spend minimal time talking and more time with hands on learning the skills that we'll need to safely move on rock and off trail. We'll debrief the previous field trip. We'll answer questions that may have arisen post trip. We'll talk conditioning. We'll talk risk mitigation. Finally, we'll work on practical skills to keep us safe.
