Multi-pitch climbing is used when climbing long routes on big walls where more than one length of rope is needed. It can vary between 2 or 25 or more lengths. One length we do call pitch. Between the pitches there are belay stations, sometimes called anchors where climbers stop, belay each other and get ready to hit the next pitch.
The goal for Rckbusters one week Multipitch climbing course is to learn all the skills needed for multi pitch climbing to be able to go and hit some cool long lines with confidence and stay reasonably safe. Of course we believe the best way to learn is to do so all the things will be taught on rock trying to maximize your climbing time and practice in real multipitch climbing situations.
To provide quality and safety service we keep the ratio guide to client to 1:2 maximum and will focus only on multipitch climbing skills. To master trad climbing or tune your technique and performance see our Trad climbing course or Sport climbing camps or trips.

Feel free to reach out to adjust these settings to your personal satisfaction.
Upon arrival before you get to the place of your final destination you will need to stop in the store to shop for breakfast and lunch food for the week. Usually there is equiped kitchen with refrigerator in the place and close by shops to replenish supplies.

We provide all the gear, but you will need to bring your own reasonably tight climbing shoes and harness. We have belay devices, slings, and helmets, but you might prefer to bring your own. We strongly suggest bringing a down jacket, a hat, a rain jacket, a pair of comfortable approach shoes, head lamp, sleeping bag, and a backpack big enough for carrying lunch and gear to the crag.
