Course: Intro To Alpine Rock

July 22nd 2019


Description

Alpine rock often involves easy to
moderate, yet complicated approaches, climbing
and descents. This can include glacier travel,
rappels, tricky route finding and managing many
transitions. Unless techniques are otherwise
learned, transitions complicate matters as
terrain on a typical route involves everything
from exposed ridge walking, to scrambling, to
both short and full pitch rock climbing, all of
it most likely in boots and with a glacier
travel approach. As well, the normal mountain
hazards are present and need to be mitigated.
The key to alpine rock success is recognizing
and managing the above mentioned in a safe,
efficient and timely manner. This is what
participants will learn from MSAA’s expert ACMG
guides and our industry leading curriculum on
this 2-day Alpine Rock course.
