Queer Crush @ Mission Cliffs

Sat, Nov 21, 3:00 AM

From " Last-Minute Backpackers " Camping, Hiking, Outdoors & More

🎟️ free for [@touchstoneclimbing](https://www.instagram.com/touchstoneclimbing/) gym members! 🎫 $20 day pass for non-members (thats a 33% discount on the regular price!) 🧗🏻‍♂️rentals are FREE for QC attendees, so no need to worry if you don’t have climbing shoes or a harness (if you wanna climb ropes!) 🎉this is an all levels meet up, so no matter your experience, you’re welcome to join us! ⏰come early so that you make it to our intro circle and you get to make community with other members RSVP: [https://portal.touchstoneclimbing.com/missioncliffs/programs/queer-crush](https://portal.touchstoneclimbing.com/missioncliffs/programs/queer-crush) NOTE: Mission Cliffs offers bouldering or rope climbing. With bouldering, you climb up to about \~15 feet from the ground, are not secured to a rope, and do not need a partner; it's probably the easiest way for beginners to explore climbing for the first time! **With rope climbing...** * You climb in pairs - the climber on the wall & the belayer on the ground ensuring the climber doesn't fall. Belayers need to learn how to belay & pass a test administered by the gym staff for safety reasons! * At this gym, the climber doesn't need to take a test (the belayer can check safety for both people); however, it's unlikely that for you to find a partner who only ever wants to belay from the ground while you're climbing. * Therefore, if rope climbing is really important to you (getting that adrenaline rush from going \~60 feet up!), you should plan when you're going to 1) learn to belay and 2) do the belay test with gym staff (which also depends on gym staff availability) * For many first-time ever learners, learning to belay can take the entirety of the Queer Crush session (and also depends on our ability to have someone who can teach you). Since the gym closes soon after our session, this means that you may not get much time, if any, on the wall! * At Mission Cliffs, most days before Queer Crush, there is an Intro to Climbing Class that the gym offers. We highly recommend you taking this class, then , time-permitting taking a belay test with gym staff, and then joining our group. This would be the best way to do rope climbing as a beginner with other queer crushers

Sunset Urchin (Uni) Foraging (Sonoma Coast)

Sun, Nov 22, 10:30 PM

From Sunday Hike San Francisco

Save Kelp, Eat Urchin! Join us at sunset for a sea urchin foraging class, where we will help remove some of the overgrown sea urchin population - so we can eat it! We will teach you how to open and enjoy this incredible delicacy. You may have heard it called “uni” in a sushi restaurant, but it’s SO much tastier when it’s fresh. Take home up to 35 urchin - if you can carry that much! Learn how humans can be a helping hand to restore balance to ecosystems impacted by climate change. Fall Class Dates (not a series) * Mon, 10/26 at 4:30 pm * Tues, 10/27 at 4:30 pm * Sun, 11/22 at 2:30 pm * Mon, 11/23 at 2:30 pm * Tues, 11/24 at 2:30 pm * Wed, 11/25 at 4:30 pm Sonoma Coast, California All registrations must be completed on our website [here](https://www.forkinthepath.org/registration-urchin) **What You Will Learn** We're thrilled to bring you to the ocean to forage for sea urchins on the gorgeous Sonoma Coast. This 3-hour class is all about sea urchins or uni, as you may have heard it called in a sushi restaurant. Learn where they live, what they eat, and who eats them... but more specifically, who hasn't been eating them and how that has impacted our kelp forests, and how humans eating them actually lends a helping hand to bringing our intertidal zone back into balance! Take home up to 35 urchins. You'll have a deeper understanding of how some of our ocean habitats are the first major biomes to experience sudden collapse due to a rapidly changing climate, and how we can mitigate the damage. **Where** A beach in Northern Sonoma, about 2.5 hours north of San Francisco. Exact location provided with registration. **More Important Details** These programs are very popular and often fill up very quickly. We encourage you to register right away if you'd like to attend!
