Description

Would you like to learn to lead on your rock climbing adventures? Then join me on this 1 or 2-day climbing course in New Hampshire and I will show you how!

Lead climbing is a popular rock climbing style in which, as the name suggests, one person leads and the others are connected to the lead climber’s rope and climb behind. This is an exciting team-work adventure that requires learning many skills, and on this 1 or 2-day course, I will teach these and other rock climbing techniques to take your adventures to the next level.

On this course, you will master the art of the rock in some of New Hampshire’s top rock climbing locations. You can join a group course on June 14th and August 22rd of 2020, when we will practice Sport Climbs in Rumney, or join a Trad climbing course in Franconia Notch on August 23rd. Otherwise, you can also contact me for custom dates.

If you would like, you can also prepare first with an intro to outdoor climbing](https://www.explore-share.com/rumney-outdoor-climbing-course-new-hampshire/) and an [advanced climbing course on Artists Bluff.

So, are you ready to take your outdoor rock climbing to the next level? Then join me on this exciting 1 or 2-day course and let me show you the ropes! I will be happy to guide you.

    Rock Guide

    Alex grew up skiing and exploring the wild places of New England. These early explorations led Alex to rock climbing, mountaineering and backcountry skiing and from there into guiding. Alex began guiding professionally in 2007 in an effort to combine his passion for climbing and teaching. In 2014 Alex took over as owner of Mooney Mountain Guides from his mentor and friend Art Mooney, providing the opportunity for sharing his passion for the mountains into his life’s work.

    Alex believes that guiding is so much more than just putting the rope up. It is about creating an experience that not only adds to the quality of life of his guests, it also expands their relationship with the Earth and with themselves. “Creating experiences for growth is what I enjoy most about my work. The guests I climb with the most become my friends, and I get to watch them transform into climbers and planet activists.” As a father, business owner, teacher and experienced guide he has a keen sense of risk and how to manage it to create unforgettable experiences for his guests.
