Climbing Events

Weekend "Trips"
These are loosely organized weekend climbing - rock and ice - excursions to various locations in New England. The trips are not for beginners, and are not instructional trips. You should know how to climb and have your own gear. We do not hook people up with partners unless someone has indicated they are looking for one. The schedule is in the Crux. These are not official AMC "trips", so are not published in the AMC Magazine.

Tuesday Night Climbing
From April until September there is climbing at different local crags after work north and west of Boston. Since there are no large climbing areas within an easy drive, the location rotates among a series of smaller sites according to a schedule. Everyone is welcome, including beginners, but we cannot provide safety instruction, so if you are not confident of your belaying skills, please bring your own instructor.
The sharing of ropes is encouraged, and dinner is usually organized at a local spot. This is not an official Mountaineering Committee function, but is a great way to meet people and go climbing. Email Bill Atkinson at watkinson@compuserve.com for a schedule of climbing areas or check out the schedule online.

Wednesday Night Climbing at Quincy Quarries
Same as Tuesday night climbing, but at one of the largest and most well-known local crags south of Boston.
