This camp takes place in Joshua Tree National Park, a granite climbing playground near Palm Springs, California. To maximize climbing time, you'll be based in a rustic area campground. Tailored for climbers of all experience levels, from novice to advanced, this seven-day camp focuses on skills - climbing techniques, knots, rope handling, belaying, anchors, protection placement, traditional and sport climbing systems, rappelling and lead climbing theory. You'll also develop face and crack climbing skills and gain experience with multi-pitch climbing. Bring your camera to record the desert's unique sun-drenched beauty.
