The local single-pitch crag has been treating you well, but there's these photos you've seen of long, enduring routes in beautiful landscapes. Let Granite Mountain Guides help you reach those goals!
Our two-day Multi-Pitch Climbing Course is designed for those who have had the opportunity to climb outdoors in the single-pitch environment. Whether you are familiar with Sport Climbing or Traditional Climbing, this course can be tailored to suit your goals. It is all-encompassing and starts off with the re-examination of anchors and then proceeds into top-belay methods. Then it focuses on efficient multi-pitch techniques and stance management. From there it finishes with the fundamental, necessary skills of how to either retreat or self-rescue in case an incident were to occur while on-route.
This course does not include instruction on how to lead climb or place traditional gear. If you wish to learn the skills of placing traditional gear or lead climbing, please look at our other course options available.

You can cancel through contacting info@granitemtnguides.com.
If GMG cancels for any reason, you will receive a full refund, minus fees, but please note: bad weather does not mean automatic cancellation. We’ll always notify you if your course or trip has been canceled.
Cancellation by the Participant
YOU MAY CANCEL YOUR TRIP FOR A FULL REFUND, MINUS BOOKING FEES, AT ANY TIME UP TO 48-HOURS PRIOR TO THE COURSE OR TRIP START DATE. To receive a refund, cancel or reschedule your registration no later than 48 hours before the start of the event.

Cancellation by Granite Mountain Guides
In rare circumstances, we may need to cancel a scheduled course or trip. Granite Mountain Guides reserves the right to cancel any course or trip for any reason, at any time. Typically cancellations by Granite Mountain Guides are the result of either extreme weather conditions, unavailability of instructors/guides (e.g. illness), or the inability to gather enough participants to run a course. In such cases, all participants who have signed up and paid deposits or full-trip payments will first be offered a 100% credit towards a future course or trip with Granite Mountain Guides. If that is not able to be agreed upon, participants will be refunded their payment, less any applicable credit card transaction fees incurred by Granite Mountain Guides as a consequence of processing credit card transactions. We cannot refund travel arrangements (e.g. airline flights, rental cars, etc.) which is why we strongly recommend travel insurance.
