4/10/25 Multi-Pitch SATURDAY INTERMEDIATE Sport Climbing

Hey everyone!

Myself, (Gabriel), Rafferty (Prez Raff), will be running an INTERMEDIATE Multi-pitch climbing trip SATURDAY in two weeks (4/10/25).

We will be climbing ‘The West Face of the Mirror Ball’. A grade 19, 4 pitch climb, with stunning views. (All on Sport, no trad)

IMPORTANT NOTE

• We will be running a ledge training night for this trip the Thursday before the trip (2/10/25). it is important that participants attend this.
• As an intermediate trip, we expect that you are familiar with the following skills.
  • Lead Climbing and Lead Belaying
  • Basic Abseiling Skills
  • Sport Climbing ability, comfortably around grade 18

Just as a side note, these are only to ensure the safe running of this trip. If you need help learning or gaining more experience and or skills with any of these, please do not hesitate to ask one of the friendly execs, and come along to the ledge training night.

Please also indicate if you have a car / need a lift 🙂

There are a few climbs that we can try, but this trip will be attempting longer multi-pitch climbs. Expect more than 150m of climbing. 

Due to the nature of this trip, we will only be able to except a small number of participants. We will be going off the ‘first in best dressed rule’, but this is subject to change. If you are worried or have any questions, again, just ask.

What to bring

• Harness
• Atc + locking beiner
• Helmet
• Sling + locking beiner
• Prusic
• Climbing shoes (COMFORTABLE)
• Atleast 2L of water
• A small backpack
• Spray jacket and Jumper (It can get very windy)

All of this gear, (except clothes and water) can be borrowed from the gear cupboard should you need.

Sneaky question (MUST ANSWER) – If you could have shoes for feet, what shoes would you choose and why? Remember that they can never come off…

The timings and location are subject to wether and change. Please make sure we can contact you easily on facebook.

Well done for reading this far!
