This is the RPP Intro to Sport Crag! This Rock Progression session is ideal for people who've learnt to lead in the gym and want to get out on real rock.
This course will be geared at 5.6-5.8 single-pitch sport.
The course leaders will be offering a pre-weekend session in Edmonton to cover anchoring, cleaning, lowering and more. Date/time to be determined based on participant and leader availability.

*Cancellation Policy*: If a participant is unable to attend a paid course or trip, there will be no refund unless the participant finds a suitable replacement that is acceptable to the trip coordinator. Acceptable waiting list candidates will have priority. It will then be the participant's responsibility to recover funds from the replacement. If the coordinator cancels an event, participants get a refund (less any non-recoverable costs). Note that ACC National does not refund hut fees due to weather, delay, closures, or any other reasons. The Edmonton Section of the ACC is a not for profit club and we only charge attendees what it costs us to provide courses or trips.
