The Seattle Basic Refresher Clinics offer Basic Alpine Climbing graduates, and non-Mountaineer members with equivalent training and experience, the opportunity to review and expand on the skills and techniques they learned in the course. Cost per clinic: $0
This Seattle Basic Refresher Clinic - Top-Rope Anchor Building covers techniques in building anchors using bolts.
Skills to be practiced:
- Focused anchors vs Equalizing anchors
- Rigging off bolts and natural protection (no chalks, no camming devices, etc.)
- Belaying off an anchor, with discussion on when this might be appropriate.
Meet at 6:30 PM in the basement. It's no big deal if traffic delays your arrival.
