Description:Hands-on climbing training is designed to provide first-time and experienced climbers with the necessary skills to safely access, move about, work in and descend from conifer and hardwood trees. A minimum of three full days of intensive training and practice provide climbers the opportunity to observe, and perform a variety of climbing techniques needed to perform their intended program of work. Tools and equipment necessary for each task are also thoroughly explained and explored.
