In-Depth Climbing Seminars

This summer I'd like to take very small groups out climbing in essentially an in depth climbing class in an on-the-rock setting. I'd like to offer a couple of these trips over the summer spread out.

This would be more targeted at those who already have some climbing experience but would like to seek more knowledge or experience before taking others out climbing or leading climbing trips for NHC.

Having at least basic personal gear would be expected, as would already knowing safe belaying and rappelling procedures.

We can cover as much or as little as you want, but here's some examples:

Top rope setups:
Typical setups using bolts and various natural anchor tricks
how to use webolette and cordolettes
rigging safeties quickly
handling group rappels
setting up rappel backups
gri-gri tricks
ascending a rope
TR trad gear anchors
General self-rescue info

Lead Climbing
Sport Climbing techniques
How to retreat without leaving excess gear
General Self Rescue Info
Trad leading

Anything else that would be useful if you're going to be doing any trip leading either on your own or with the club.
