Whether you are an experienced alpinist or a beginning mountaineer, the benefits of the light & fast approach are indisputable.

  • Being lighter means using less energy with every step we take and more comfortable when we are in motion.

  • This clinic covers the most important aspects of the light & fast approach, moving in the mountains and multi-pitch climbing.

  • This is an advanced level clinic. A high level of fitness and comfort on WI4 ice is required.

Note: participants will NOT be leading. All students will be on a top rope.

Each clinic features the theory and head space behind Light & Fast followed by an optional day traveling around in the mountains finding and climbing pitches where we will be able to focus on hands-on skills and tactics.
