During the practice session at the MMC you will have the opportunity to get familiar with basic rock gear and basic rock skills. You'll practice getting into your harness, how to setup your harness, how to tie into the climbing rope, in addition to belaying, rappelling, and ascending a fixed line. This will be done within your BCEP team on the MMC instructional rock walls.

Activity Notes

Our goal for the evening is to practice proper belay and rappel technique in a realistic environment prior to our Rock Skills session at Horsethief Butte. We’ll continue practicing the Sling-shot Belay, Top of Pitch Belay, Fixed Line, and Rappelling with Autoblock, and use of prusiks on a fixed line and in self-rescue. 

Please bring all your climbing gear plus a helmet for this session.
