Climbing

The climbing component of this event will be entirely handled by Amir Fishman, of Overhang Adventures. Amir is a fully licensed and insured climbing instructor, who will provide all climbing gear (everything excluding rock climbing shoes), instruction and assistance required for top-rope climbing and rappelling/abseiling.

Amir will introduce outdoor climbing with a focus on top-roping and rappelling. Corresponding anchor, rope, device setups will be shown/explained and safety considerations overviewed in detail. The climbing portion of this entire event will be 3 hours in duration, starting at 10AM sharp.Waivers will need to be signed in conjunction with the outfitter's policies.

There will be absolutely ZERO TOLERANCE for any form of delinquent/negligent/ignorant behavior which may impact the safety of others. This will be VERY STRICTLY ENFORCED.

Hiking

Once we have rested from climbing and have had lunch, we’ll go for a slow stroll along the escarpment. The hike portion of this event is not intended to be of an intensive nature. The purpose here is to relax the mind after climbing and provide time/environment for individual reflection. You are encouraged to bring your camera, as the views are indeed worthwhile.
