Artificial Climbing Guiding
PHOTO: Setting off from the portaledge on "Black Magic Woman"
FEEDBACK: "An amazing weekend! Still can't believe I did it" Adrian A, Swansea, 2005
Course Overview
For those looking at climbing big walls, the amount of new equipment, and skills to master can seem daunting. These guided days allow you to learn multi pitch aid climbing in stunning scenery, and even to experience a night on a portaledge.
All technical kit is included, aid climbing kit, ropes, helmet, harness, portaledge. To consider this course, you should be confident in lead climbing and ropework.
You can consider these days as a course either in its own right, or as an extension after a week long course. For example, if you booked on a Bastille Rock course, the Guiding finishes on the Friday, and you could be off to artificial climbing on the Saturday morning. Not a bad way to finish your holiday!
If you have any questions, or would like and further information, please contact the Chamonix Reps. You can e-mail them on chamonix@icicleUK.com or call 00 33 67 55 621 55.
Dates: Run on demand from April through to November. For current availability on this course click here.
