Clinic
Seattle Basic Climbing Refresher Clinic - Belaying - Mountaineers Seattle Program Center
Intended for graduates of Intense Basic and Rob Busack’s previous mentor groups. -- UPDATE -- Given the good weather, we'll use the outside South Plaza wall for leading easy bolted routes, plus a few other skills. (We'll save belay escape practice for some other rainy day.)

This originally was going to be belay escape practice in Goodman C. Given the good weather, we're going to change plans and instead lead on bolts, belay followers, and possibly even do little multipitches on the outside south wall.
This is for Rob's mentor group. If you're not in Rob's mentor group and still want to practice belay escape, you're in luck! There's a Basic Refresher practicing the same thing at the same time, sign up for that one here instead: https://www.mountaineers.org/locations-lodges/seattle-branch/committees/seattle-climbing-committee/seminars-clinics/seattle-basic-climbing-refresher-clinic-fundamental-skills-mountaineers-seattle-program-center-4
6pm to 9pm in Goodman C.
6pm to 9pm outside on the South Plaza wall. Bring a headlamp & warm jacket, quickdraws, guide-mode-capable belay device (like MegaJul, Petzl Reverso, or ATC Guide,) helmet, rock shoes, and the other usual climbing gear.
Required Equipment
Bring what you would need to perform a fully releasable belay escape, as it is demonstrated here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fDtOdyCOe4o
