Northeast Mountain Guiding
Join us to learn and advance your climbing skills on Saturday, June 4th, starting 7:30 am.
Learn the basics of outdoor rock climbing with professional guides! This is our most popular course and participants always come back for more! You must be 8 years of age or older to participate in this course.
The day starts on the ground discussing basic climbing gear, movement on the rock/climbing techniques, balance and body positioning and knots. The 2nd part of the day you'll be climbing on cliffs of various heights and rock types putting together what you learned and then we move on to belaying and more climbing!
We'll finish up about 2 or 3PM.
What to wear: Dress for the weather but keep in mind flexibility for climbing. The trail to the cliff is short and steep so be sure to wear appropriate footwear for hiking.
