Improvised Self Rescue Clinic with La Sportiva Boulder

This is a chance for front range climbers to develop self rescue and emergency preparedness skills. The program costs $10 per person and is meant to be an accessible opportunity for motivated climbers. If you want financial assistance just reach out.
This program is an opportunity to observe demonstrations of key self-rescue techniques and ask questions about their practical application.
We will have an hour of demo and then a half hour for questions. This program runs from 6pm to 7:30pm at the La Sportiva retail store in Boulder, CO.
