In this course led by UIAGM guide Pablo Ruiz Seco, and pro-climber Edu Marin, you will learn everything you need to know to tackle hard multi-pitch climbs.
Seco was a past member of the Spanish Youth Alpine Team and has opened routes in the Himalayas. Klemen Becan has done some of the hardest multi-pitch routes around, some of them he has bolted himself and made the first ascent. This team of experts will show you the best practices for safely approaching hard multi-pitch climbs.
All skills and tricks needed to become an independent and self-confident climber who push it hard on multi-pitch routes such as:
Whether you are an experienced multi-pitch climber looking for a challenge or if you are a confident single-pitch sport climber searching for a new experience, this camp has what you need. You will leave this camp with a deep understanding of multi-pitch safety and learn to execute your multi-pitch ascents with technical excellence and efficiency.
In addition to equipment handling, you will also gain an understanding of risk management. Many multi-pitch routes are found in alpine environments. To safely execute multi-pitch climbs, it is important to evaluate the risks associated with high altitude, weather, mountain obstacles, and other potential hazards. It is important to understand how to plan your adventures and how to escape if the need arrives.
When attempting a difficult multi-pitch climb, conditions must be perfect. In this course, we will ensure your competence as a multi-pitch climber. You will learn how to plan and prepare - both technically and mentally - for your multi-pitch climbing endeavors.
While some guides may only help you to get up the routes, in this course, we make sure you become a competent multi-pitch climber for all your adventures to come. Over the course of a week, you will learn about rope management, become literate in multi-pitch safety, and of course, the best way to learn things is to do them as much as possible so you spend a lot of time climbing a variety of beautiful routes in Riglos.
