[FULL] SUNDAY BL – Multipitch (Intermediate)

Sick of climbing up and then coming straight back down?
Feel like you’re not going anywhere when you’re climbing (a bit like a hamster on a wheel)?
Ever felt limited by your rope length?
Ever trekked all the way to a crag and realised the view wasn’t as good as it should have been?

Well my good friend, let me introduce you to the beautiful world of Multipitching! Sunday of Boree we’ll be taking a small group of people (4) to Reservoir Dogs and showing you the ropes 😉 along with important rescue techniques.

We will NOT be teaching anyone how to LEAD climb, if you want to come on this trip it is a prerequisite that you already know how to lead climb and belay (and be competent with it). In the comments tell me your climbing experience, if you have a car, and tell me what do you have to do to make your life complete? I love making you answer hard questions hehe

I’ll be covering:

• Safety.
• Belay building.
• Communication.
• Rope Management.
• Route Selection and Preparation.

What YOU will need to bring

• Food.
• Snacks
• 2L water (minimum)
• climbing shoes
• Approach shoes
• chalkbag
• Headtorch + spare batteries (Get in the habit of ALWAYS taking one on your multis)
• Raincoat (Again its not super necessary but definitely get in the habit of packing one for your multis even if the weather is good)
• A whistle is handy if you have one

What you definitely should bring if you own (But i can get for you if you need):

• Belay device. preferred is ATC-Guide or Grigri
• Harness
• Helmet
• Draws. Bring what you have.
• bolt plates
• Locking carabiners. 6 is a good number. Some free non-locking carabiners are good too.
• Slings. One or two double-length (120cm) slings for anchors are great. (or 5m cordelette)
• Prussiks. Minimum 1 short and 1 long

What we need to get as a group (remind me on Sunday 😉 )

• 50m static rope
• a rope between 2 people
