Pre-Adventure Trip Call:
Our team extends the offer to schedule a call before your group climbing day. They will discuss crag options for the day, review gear needs, and share a general time plan for the climbing day. This is also a great way to ask any questions.
Morning:
Meet at a local cafe and share a quick morning hello, and the day’s itinerary or at the trailhead given to you by your guide.
The team will make any small adjustments to the kit and then take a stroll to the crag.
An integral part of climbing is familiarity with the area and its history. Our team shares some stories and educates as we approach.
The Day of Climbing:
We learn how to crag. Enjoy the weather, scenery, climbing, repeat! Take a break, have some food, and get back on the wall and figure out those hard moves!
End Of Day Debrief:
At the cars, we focus our attention on the day; sharing the Rose, the Bud, and the Thorn to ruminate more deeply on the experience. It is often customary ( but not mandatory) to have a meal back in the town to celebrate the great days spent in the mountains!
