Trip Description

This will be an informal practice session for clean aid climbing -- *not a course*. This is an opportunity for those of us who *recently* completed an Aid Climbing course to help each other practice our clean aid skills. It's up to participants what exactly they want to do, but some skills we might want to practice are: leading easy clean aid on shorter finger crack routes (no harder than C1), jumaring up a rope, and hauling a bag.

In the afternoon, if we get tired of aid climbing, we may climb some other routes on TR or lead.

PLEASE NOTE: This Practice Session was added to the BCMC Events schedule for those who took the Aid Climbing course this month.  However, those who are currently active with organizing club courses and trips, *AND* have taken some form of aid climbing course, may also be Confirmed into this session.

Requirements: You should be confident at building safe anchors, belaying, and rappelling, and have some kind of aid climbing training. You should be able to lead 5.7 on trad. If you're not sure you have enough experience, shoot me a message.

Equipment to bring: Everyone needs a helmet, harness, belay device, and rope. Besides that, bring the trad lead and aid climbing gear you normally climb with. We will try to combine our trad racks and aid gear to climb gear intensive air routes.

Meetup info: If you're in Squamish, we'll meet you at  8 a.m. in the Squamish Adventure Centre parking lot.  Plan to leave Squamish around 7pm.

Cancellation: Trip will be cancelled if POP forecast is higher than 50%.
