SOA Outdoor Climbing (Tieton) **Read Description**

** Event is subject to cooperative weather (not too cold or rainy). **

The plan for this event is that we will be climbing primarily traditional climbs at the Royal Columns. Please indicate in the comments if you have trad lead experience or lead belay experience; those who do will have priority. You are welcome to follow or top rope as long as we have sufficient leaders and belayers.

We will meet at the park and ride at 7:30 am and head out to hopefully beat the crowds. We will climb until we are tired; people can leave whenever their car is finished.

You will need:

*Harness

• Climbing Shoes
  *Helmet (mandatory for climbers AND belayers. If you don't have a helmet, you may be able to borrow one, but anytime you are close to the wall you should be wearing a helmet)
• 10 essentials
  *Water, snacks, and lunches.

I will have my own rope and material, but we will need additional ropes and anchor material. Let me know if you can bring:

• Rope (ideally 60m single and dry treated)
  *Quickdraws for Sport and/or Protection for Trad
• Anchor material for setting top ropes
