Gear:

Lisa and Duncan will provide the 3 ropes needed,  trad gear, cleaning tool and a team first aid kit . Please bring any personal first aid items you like to have.  Please bring all gear listed on the climber gear list in the prospectus. No one will be allowed to climb without a helmet/harness/prusiks/personal protection leash and the other items on the list.

Please bring a whistle.

Footware:

The climb can be done in approach shoes but will be more enjoyable with rock shoes and they are strongly encouraged.  No open toed shoes, no sandals.

Climbers will want to bring water and snacks that can be eaten easily during the climb.  Please let us know if you have and medical issues, allergies or carry an epi-pen.  This can be discussed privately.

The summit can be windy sometimes so a wind shell is recommended for warmth.

Please apply sunscreen before the climb and wear clothing to protect yourself from sun, wind, poison oak.  Alligators have never been seen on this climb so no guns will be allowed.
