What is the Trad Camp all about?
We are offering a 4 day program and a 2 day crash course program. Both will have a small client to guide ratio of 3:1. We will focus on each climber individually so you get the most from your time at the Trad Camp. When you leave you’ll climb stronger, smarter, safer, and more efficiently, and you’ll have the skills you need for leading traditional routes.

When and Where will it be held?
4 Day Session: October 16-19 @ the New River Gorge, WV
2 Day Session: October 21-22 @ the New River Gorge, WV
