High Mountain Institute Rock Climbing and Conservation

I had an amazing time doing this program. We spent a lot of time rock climbing. I came into this program with little prior knowledge about climbing and was able to learn a ton about different types of rock climbing and the safety systems of climbing. Beyond just the climbing aspects of this program we also had many discussions about conservation of wilderness and wilderness safety which I found very beneficial. The community was also a great part of this program. I was in a group of 11 people and 3 instructors and felt among a group where I was greatly supported, with instructors I felt I both trusted and could go to with whatever issue I might have. I would highly recommend this program to anyone who is interested in learning to rock climb.
