Introduction to Drytooling, 1/2-Day 

Join our guides on Pikes Peak for this 1/2-day introduction to drytooling clinic! You will learn the fundamentals of moving efficiently and securely on technical tools in rocky terrain. This clinic will prepare you for the fantastic ice and mixed climbing we have on Pikes Peak. This is a 1/2 day of instruction (4 hours car-to-car), but plan for a 6 hour day to account for Pikes Peak Highway drive times and a meeting/gear check in the morning.
