Falling and Testing Your Trad Placements - Exit 32

Little Si Trailhead at 6p.  Encourage carpooling since parking at the trailhead can be limited.

LEADER PERMISSION REQUIRED.  Please email with prior trad climbing history, as well as your past/current intermediate mentor.

So how confident are you with your trad pro? interested in really knowing if your gear placement can take a fall...and why you really want to avoid that in the alpine?

We'll go to exit 32 and test trad placements with a backup top-rope. if you're not comfortable taking a fall, i'll fall on your gear for you :-).

Attendees are required to have Rock 2 credit and be comfortable leading 5.7.  Belaying and taking leader falls at least in the gym beforehand helpful but not required.
