SUMMARY:Learn Rock Skills & Meet the Legendary Lynn Hill
DESCRIPTION:December 6-8\, 2024 (registration link at the bottom)\nClimbSmart is the largest gathering of climbers at Joshua Tree\, and is owned and managed by Friends Of Joshua Tree (501 c3\, founded 1991). Now in its 29th year\, this event kicks off the climbing season in Joshua Tree with education and stewardship as the primary pillars\, as well as the chance to give back to our Park and those who actively conserve it. Over 300 attendees are anticipated every year\, and the mix of climbers represents a unique blend of new entrants to the sport and old-school traditionalists. Partners in anchoring the Climb Smart presentations include the National Park Service\, top athletes\, native tribes of the region and local legends. \nClimb Smart is a 3-day event\, running all day Friday through Sunday on a special weekend in the Fall each year. Special mini-clinics run by working guides at Joshua Tree National Park offer introduction and refresher content in 2 or 3 session tracks\, as well as managed toprope climbing for those who simply want to try their skills on the quartz monzonite stone. Each evening a catered dinner is provided and a stage show delivers entertainment\, inspiration and more education in multimedia format. We always have great brand sponsors and local and regional retailers as well as a killer raffle. The attendee of Climb Smart will leave more experienced\, better networked\, psyched for climbing and likely with some swag items too. \nOne of the unique offerings at Climb Smart is working with professional climbing guides in mini-clinic format which allows for getting to know several different organizations\, style differences\, and consistencies between climbing schools. In the end\, all of the guide organizations invited to participate in Climb Smart are top shelf\, longstanding professional outfits permitted by the Park and have strong reputations in the climbing community. \nIt’s VERY IMPORTANT to realize that the clinics at Climb Smart are NOT full course days with guides and instructional outfits. The clinics at Climb Smart are designed to be an introductory experience of a topic (or refresher experience)\, in order to facilitate a climber’s decision to move forward in the various disciplines of climbing. It’s one of the great values of the event\, but also important to not convey a sense of overconfidence with skills. Practice takes many days/weeks/months\, and an introductory experience can help set the table for a lifetime of safe\, informed and adventurous climbing outdoors. \nLearn More about Climb Smart \, register here\nhttps://www.zeffy.com/en-US/ticketing/0ca5abe9-b4e1-43de-bb30-3ded31222d29

SUMMARY:Stair Hike: Under the Banner of Blue Heaven #1 - 4.5 miles
DESCRIPTION:Take a ramble beneath Heavenly Blue skies near the Hollywood Bowl. We’ll see the festive holiday lights in old Hollywood\, including the site of Rudolph Valentino’s house and the stair streets where gumshoes Philip Marlowe and Harry Bosch worked their cases. You won’t need keen eyes to see all the Dodger flags in the neighborhood. Work off those holiday calories and prepare for winter adventures by carrying a heavy pack like Saint Nicholas. Meet in front of Wingstop on Highland & Franklin (1900 Highland Ave\, LA 90068). Street parking is limited so arrive early. Hint: try a parking lot to the north. Bring water\, adventurous spirit\, strong legs and a love of stair hikes. Flashlight suggested. No restrooms. Heavy rain cancels.

SUMMARY:Stair Hike: Under the Banner of Blue Heaven #2 - 4.5 miles
DESCRIPTION:Let’s explore the winding streets of Silver Lake as we discover a bit of Hollywood History by climbing the Music Box Steps\, made famous by the classic comedy film duo\, Laurel and Hardy! While this comedy duo was pre L.A.

Meet at the Bellevue Recreation Center (826 Lucile Ave\, Los Angeles\, CA 90026). Street parking is limited so please arrive early. Good walking shoes\, headlamps/flashlights\, and a liter of water are encouraged. Heavy rain cancels.

SUMMARY:Learn New Skills-Make New Friends-Experience New Adventure
DESCRIPTION:Learn New Skills-Make New Friends-Experience New Adventure\nDetails\nInformational Posting Only – See Website at www.wildernesstravelcourse.org\nINFORMATIONAL POSTING ONLY\nwww.wildernesstravelcourse.org\nDear Group Members\, particularly the recent swell of new\, never-been-backpacking-before-but-want-to-start members: There is a great Sierra Club opportunity that is about to begin….an opportunity that only happens one time each year and it is one of the best outdoor learning experiences the Sierra Club has to offer. This is the Angeles Chapter Wilderness Travel Course (WTC). Some of you have taken the course and are now leaders and/or knowledgeable hikers. For those of you who have not\, enrollment in WTC is something you should consider now. The Wilderness Travel Course helps build outdoor skills so hikers can be safe in the backcountry. The course runs for ten weeks and includes four field trips (two one day and two weekend outings). Students learn map and compass navigation skills for competently hiking off-trail\, snow travel\, rock scrambling techniques\, first aid\, nutrition and lots more. The course is followed by unforgettable experience backpacking trips most of which take place in the High Sierra\, Sequoia and Yosemite during the summer months.\nWTC moves you from being a day hiker to a more serious adventurer. You will acquire skills in trip planning\, preparation\, equipment and wilderness safety to take you into the backcountry in all seasons\, beyond roads and trails with new friends that share your interest in the outdoors. \nAgain\, the course runs only one time each year and takes place in Southern California in four locations as follows: Long Beach/South Bay (Wednesdays beginning January 8th); San Gabriel Valley (Tuesdays beginning Jan 14th); West Los Angeles (Wednesdays beginning Jan 22nd; Orange County (Tuesdays beginning Jan 28th);\nThe four geographic areas fill up well in advance of the class start date so register early. \nFOR MORE INFORMATION AND TO REGISTER FOR THE COURSE GO TO: www.wildernesstravelcourse.org (http://ww.wildernesstravelcourse.org/)

SUMMARY:Stair Hike: Under the Banner of Blue Heaven #3 - 3 miles
DESCRIPTION:Come explore the hills of north Silver Lake\, where the vast Ivanhoe and Silver Lake reservoirs reflect the heavenly blue sky beneath Dodger Stadium and surroundings. This urban hike is led by Sierra Club trip leaders and covers 3 miles winding through stairs\, streets\, and sidewalks over two Silver Lake hills. The hike covers a range of local topics including the history of water\, infrastructure\, protected habitat\, mid-century modern architecture\, movie studios\, immigration and LGBTQ history. The two hills are each a 600-700 foot elevation gain on stairs for a combined total gain of 1\,200 feet. The hike starts at the Silver Lake Meadows\, just across the street from the Neutra VDL House at 2300 Silver Lake Blvd\, Los Angeles\, CA 90039. There is free street parking along Silver Lake Boulevard across from the reservoir and on Armstrong Avenue\, off of Silver Lake Blvd. The best option is to find parking on the east side of Silver Lake Boulevard before you reach 2300 Silver Lake Boulevard. Cross at the cross walk with a traffic light in front of the VDL House. You can bring well behaved dogs on leash.
