The Course:
Throughout the course, you'll gain the knowledge, confidence, and hands-on experience needed to plan and execute your own multi-pitch climbs. With the support of an ACMG-certified guide, you'll refine your systems in new terrain, develop strategies for managing complex objectives, and learn how to approach longer, more involved routes with greater independence. Whether your goals include big mountain linkups, technical ridge climbs, or classic multi-pitch lines, this course provides a strong foundation for taking the lead on your own adventures.
