📣 TRIP 2: 'Outdoor Top-Rope Fundamentals - Take Your Indoor Skills Outside' is an educational course for climbers looking to transition from the gym to the world of outdoor rope climbing. This trip focuses on the fundamental differences between indoor and outdoor environments, emphasizing safety protocols and basic technical skills.

📣 This trip is best for climbers who are comfortable belaying indoors and want to learn the technical basics of outdoor top-rope climbing. Lead climbing and anchor building won’t be covered, so this is more about exposure and learning how indoor skills and systems transfer when climbing outside.

📣 What to Expect:
👉 A focus on education on how to approach being self-sufficient climbing outdoors.
👉 Practice of outdoor-specific safety and crag etiquette.
👉 In-depth look at gear, knots, and communication.
👉 Instruction on rappelling.
