Description
Practice using a traverse/access line, passing a rebelay. Ascending and self belaying with mechanical ascenders and PCD's (progress capture devices). Abseiling with a VT prusik as self belay if time allows. After practice at the crag we'll continue practicing these techniques in sleeper canyon and reverse the last pitch. Participants need to have their own mechanical ascenders/PCD's or borrow and have had some prior experience using mechanical ascenders.
