    Default Vertical Rope Experience - Free - March 23rd, 2013

    http://www.cavealliance.com/rope/rope.html


    Join veteran cave explorers Walter Pickel and Curt Bowen of the ADM Exploration Foundation and the Cave Alliance for a fun filled, hands on, hanging on rope experience.

    During this vertical experience you will learn about the basics of climbing and repelling equipment, techniques, and safety as well as practical exploration practices. After a brief field session, the fun begins as you get "On Rope" and drop into central Florida's labyrinth of caves passages.

    Curt,

    Is there an age limit? I didnt see it on the site. Some of us may be interested in bringing teens under 18.

    Yes, please. I'll hopefully know in a couple of days if my schedule allows me to commit.

    I attended the last vertical rope workshop with my 16 year old son. We had a great time, and learned some new skills. I highly recommend attending.

    Just signed up for myself and my fiance, looks like fun! It'll be the first time I've done any vertical work off something other than a tree.
