In partnership with local ACMG guides, Claire Ellick, Zenn Teoh and Renee Lavergne The Crush Collective and Soul of Miistaki are offering a two day progression style outdoor rock climbing clinic. Folks must be available for both dates.
June 29th - 30th, 8am - 4pm MST.
The two day clinic will take place at various locations in the surrounding areas of the Bow Valley. The routes chosen will be introductory level and no previous experience is required. Climbing equipment can also be provided if needed.
We welcome all bodies and the event will be set at a pace to fit everyone's needs. This event is open to individuals who are ages 18+.
The Crush Collective will do your best to make transportation options available for those who are not able to transport themselves.
There is a $50 fee associated with this event to help to cover guiding and gear costs of this two-day rock climbing clinic.
However, we don’t want this to be a barrier to participation, or deter any interested person from applying! If this fee does not work for you please note what you can pay in the google form below; we offer a sliding scale and there will be no questions asked.
We are committed to offering an inclusive and welcoming learning experience, especially for folks who have been traditionally excluded from mainstream representations of outdoor recreation.
Participants who register will be emailed a confirmation of attendance prior to the climbing date. This event has been heavily subsidized thanks to fundraising from the Crush Collective.
Please note, as registration is limited, we will be prioritizing registration from individuals who hold additional intersections of identity/face marginalization that influence access to climbing. More details are in the questions below.
