Course Description:

'' You have been climbing for awhile and are tired of constantly following. You want to change the view and get on the sharp end of the rope. OWLS has a comprehensive course which will challenge you and send you out into the climbing world as a new, confident, safe lead climber. We do not believe in mock-leads at OWLS, but rather have you lead climbs that are well within your ability. The instructor will ascend a fixed line as you climb so that every placement can be evaluated as it is placed and the student kept safe. Besides anchor choice, gear placement, and rappelling techniques, students will discuss all aspects of being a good lead such as route selection, route finding, weather, mental status and partner selection. A good understanding of anchors, at least one year of experience seconding, and self-rescue are prerequisites for this course. The students will expect to have a comprehensive review the first morning, with the rest of their time spent on the cliff practicing.

This course needs two people. ...''
