| Itinerary: |
| Course Content: This clinic introduces both novice ice climbers as well as more experienced winter climbers to the wild world of mixed climbing. Many people are unnecessarily intimated by mixed terrain so this is an opportunity to discover the tricks of trade in a safe, learning environment. Even if mixed climbing isn't your thing, the skills acquired will make pure ice climbing feel easier. Areas of focus will include hazard evaluation, drytooling, thin ice, hanging pillars/curtains, leashless techniques and efficient movement (the back-step and twist-lock).
Prerequisite: No previous mixed experience is required but the Steep Ice course (Nov 28) is a pre-requisite. However, if you have taken one of my ice or mixed courses in the past then it is possible to make an exception (determined on a case-by-case basis). Participants must be able to offer a safe top-rope belay.
Date(s): Dec 12
Costs: $100 per person (1:6 ratio) plus 5% GST (total = $105)
