This course explores the industry best practices for effectively managing a top rope climbing site - applicable to either a professional or recreational capacity. This class meets weekly for 2.5 hours in Bryson Gym and has one weekend field trip assessment. This course combines practical skills (establishing climbs, partner rescues, belayed rappels, personal security) as well as academic content (reading reflections and incident analysis presentations) with less of a focus on time spent rock-climbing. Course Fee. Students will be evaluated based on the practical assessment and completed assignments and assigned a grade. Prerequisite: ODL 1250 Introduction to Rock Climbing.
