Description
9/21/20 was not intended date - changed to make unavailable
while saving content.
Climbing is inherently dangerous. Eventually, something won't go
as expected and your level of preparedness could be the difference
between a traumatic ordeal & an epic adventure. This hybrid course
further builds on the material from Top Managed Systems to give
climbers important tools for dealing with a variety of unintended
situations where simply lowering the climber to the ground is not an option.
Participants are expected to have taken our Top Managed Systems workshop or have a solid understanding of its content already. (Equipment basics, artificial anchors, belaying a second, descending, knots & hitches). As with Top Managed Systems, we strongly encourage participants bring any applicable personal equipment but will have the necessary equipment available for those that need it.
Format: Hybrid online/ in-person. New 1-day format!
Cost: $30 for GV Students; $40 for Faculty/ Staff
(this workshop is currently unavailable to alumni & general public)
This event also appears on the main events calendar tagged as climbing, dsa, outdooradventures, recreation, recwell, and workshop.
