Anne, teaching the ropes during a rappel in our recent Women’s Climb Clinic. This gym-to-crag class is a perfect intro to outdoor climbing and covers gear selection, knots and tying in, belaying, and of course, climbing! #goEast #emsguides

Meet your Guides! Cheers to 20 years, @dougmartl

Meet your Guides!

Cheers to 20 years, @dougmartland! 🎉 Doug started at EMS in the fall of 2001 while in law school. “Around the same time I started climbing, often with other store employees as the store started to develop a real climbing culture, with regular trips to local crags like Quincy Quarries, Rattlesnake Rocks, and Auburn Ice Canyon. Over the next few years I really fell in love with climbing, taking my first AMGA class in 2007 and transferring over to the Climbing School in 2008. Since then I’ve guided for the school on a part-time basis, primarily in the Greater Boston area.” Doug is an AMGA Single Pitch Instructor, an AMGA Apprentice Rock and Alpine Guide, and a Wilderness EMT, as well as a writer for the #goEast blog. Bravo, Doug!

When lead climbing it is important to keep your systems neat and orderly. Seen here the leader is clipped in with a clove hitch [Orange Carabiner on the left] and is belaying the second climber up directly off the anchor [Green Device]. By tying in directly to the master point you avoid tethers and awkward belaying. Clean, simple, efficient.

Looking for Volunteers to learn to how to rock climb next Friday!

Anybody want to try some outdoor rock climbing in the Gunks on Friday, 10/15/21? Eastern Mountain Sports Climbing School is offering a free* climbing day on Friday, October 15th from 8:30am to about 3:30pm.

We are looking for people age 16 and up, to participate in a day of rock climbing in the Gunks, free of charge*. This is for the second day of the American Mountain Guides Association Single Pitch Instructor assessment. Guide candidates will be evaluated on day one on their technical skills. Day two is designed to show their abilities in group management in a teaching setting. The day will consist of beginner to low intermediate climbing and rappelling with guide candidates under the supervision of an AMGA certified Rock Instructor.

No outdoor climbing experience is preferred for volunteers.

*Day passes are not included to the Mohonk Preserve or Peterskill climbing area. They are required and are the responsibility of each participant.
