training - intro to trad placements - July 12, 2026
This workshop will focus on how to use traditional climbing protection. How to inspect and place traditional, clean, pieces such as cams, nuts, tri-cams, etc. We will be covering how to place individual pieces, and build multi-piece trad anchors. We will be doing this on low-angle terrain, but may jump on anchors to test them. Expect a 4-6 hour workshop, and bring good footwear for the day. Helmets required, and bring your harness and gear. Trad racks will be available to borrow, if needed. There is a $15 suggested donation for each workshop, that goes entirely to the rope fund to purchase club ropes and anchor kits.
