An evening workshop to learn some basic movement on rock, how to tie in to a top-rope, how to belay on a top-rope using the PBUS belay method (pull, brake, under, slide), and how to stay safe when climbing.
Please bring your own climbing shoes, harness, and belay device (ATC) if you have them. We may have a few harnesses students can borrow for the night, but no extra shoes. If you do not have climbing shoes, tennis shoes will work since we will be more focused on belaying instead of climbing. If you are not able to get any climbing gear, let me know.
6:30pm at the Seattle Program Center - we will be outside on the south plaza if it's nice out.
