Safe Climbing

Resources

We want to foster open-mindedness and a desire to constantly learn. There is a wealth of information, techniques, and practices out there for all forms of climbing. One can never know everything about anything...and accidents begin to happen when we become complacent.

Here are some great, vetted online resources on safe rock climbing practices.

Belaying

There are so many ways to belay incorrectly, and more and more accidents are occurring due to incorrect belay techniques. Even if you have been climbing for years, give these videos a watch. Odds are, you might learn something new! If anything, the Petzl videos are fairly entertaining!
