[Natural Icefall] Ice climbing step-up course 3/16 (Sat) – 17 (Sun) @ Yatsugatake

Beta Climbing Gym | Ice Climbing ・Step-up course | Yatsugatake


This course is for those who want to step up their ice climbing skills. Of course, it’s okay even if it’s your first time.
We will mainly be climbing with the top rope, but depending on your skill, we will also be doing things like climbing with a lead and installing screws.
Best of all, you can receive direct advice from Mr. Hirokawa. I want to be able to freely climb up and knock down large silver ice walls like Hiroken!

This year’s winter is warm and the ice melts quickly, but I hope it will hold out somehow!
I’m guessing that Minamisawa Otaki will probably be fine.
Let’s enjoy the last ice cream of the year!

That’s right, NHK’s “Gaku Tanigawa and Ichinokurasawa challenging the large ice wall” If you have already seen it, please take a look!

Mr. Hirokawa also currently serves as the representative of “Kailas Japan”.
You can also try Kailash’s ax and crampons! ! Also, as a participant benefit, you will receive discounts and other benefits when purchasing!
