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
