This active course quickly reviews the fundamentals of rock climbing and top-rope anchor building, then proceeds to introduce more advanced skills with a greater emphasis on lead sport climbing and traditional gear placement. Safety issues remain a strong emphasis in this course. The majority of class time takes place off-campus at nearby cliffs. Prerequisite: Rock Climbing I, or equivalent. Restrictions: A maximum of 4 credits of Exercise & Sports Study performance classes may be counted towards the degree. Enrollment limited to 8.
