You have to start somewhere. This
one-day course is a general introduction to waterfall ice climbing and general mountaineering. It is best suited for novice winter climbers. The first half of the day will be spent learning about the equipment, crampons, ice axes, anchors and belays. The second half of the day will be spent climbing to gain a practical appreciation for efficient movement over moderately angled snow and ice terrain. This course is a fun way for groups of friends or a family to learn the basics without having to invest a lot of time and money. We provide all technical gear. Course participants will need to provide a day pack and appropriate clothing.
Return to NYC late Sunday night...
