Itinerary:

Cut outta work and go straight to the crag for some outdoor rock climbing & rappelling. 

I've never met a rock I didn't like. There are plenty of highly traveled routes at Allenbrook (well marked with the chalk, blood sweat & tears of climbers before us). This event should not be your first ever outdoor rock climbing event and if it is, please be prepared to be vetted. We'll set up TR and rap down to set up for TR Belays. I don't have any QD's so if you're thinking of Trad Time - BYOQDs. We're out there to TR the "Beginners Route" 5.6 all the way up to the "Happy Hooker" 5.12a. Have your own harness, shoes, chalk & helmet (at minimum). I plan to be there for a while to inspect routes, study them a bit then it's a full on assault on anything that looms over us!
Bring a small cooler with snacks, beverages, energy gels, sushi whatever floats your boat!
Planning on hitting as many routes as possible to include:

 

Block Direct T,TR 5.11c
Happy Hooker TR 5.12a
Afterburner TR 5.11a
Rumors Roof T,TR 5.10b
Rumors Right TR 5.10b
Levitation TR 5.10a PG13
Groove, The TR 5.8
Chode Route TR 5.7
Beginner's Route TR 5.6

Beginner's Arete TR 5.9

 

not necessarily in that order...we wanna get there quickly to set up and beat the potential rush..but this is a passive start time event (come and go as needed).
Be comfy with top roping, lead climbing, how to belay, basic climbing safety & callouts and basic climbing knot know-how.

Fur babies are allowed as long as they're calm, cool and collected (just like their #2's) - Leash laws observed....pls.
