The Elite Climbing Camp is designed for advanced climbers wanting to take their climbing to the next level. This course is staffed not only by AMGA trained guides but also by elite level coaches, trainers, and professional climbers. We will spend our days sport climbing and bouldering at the premier venues of Estes Park and Rocky Mountain National Park seeking your dream route. We will discuss and practice high level route selection and redpoint techniques. Students will leave with a solid understanding of how to train for, redpoint, and send the hardest climbs in the world (one day)!
