Mobile Merit Badge

This program is a fun and educational way for boy and girl scouts to earn their climbing merit badge.

We cover all of the required topics and then some:  Sizing harnesses and helmets, knot work, belaying, rappelling, climbing technique and movement, system redundancy, communication, safety skills, and more.  We can also design a day to fill in the gaps for more experienced scouts, and / or expand into advanced climbing skills.  We can also conduct Merit Badge programs on actual rock faces.

Highlights

  • Climbing Basics
  • Option to Expand Existing Skills
  • Actual Rock Faces Available

What To Bring

Good Shoes

Most likely, we will have to hike to where we are going to climb. Be sure to bring good, comfortable hiking or jogging shoes to make walking the trail easier.

Comfortable Clothes

You will want to wear clothing that is not baggy, but will stretch when you need it to. Breathable materials are best, and multiple layers will ensure you are a comfortable temperature throughout the day. Also, if you are wearing shorts make sure they come down to at least mid-thigh.

Water & Snacks

Climbing requires a lot of energy and you will want to make sure you have plenty of water to replenish tired muscles. At least 2 quarts of water per person is recommended. Several small snacks will also keep you well-fueled throughout the day.

A Small Backpack

A small backpack will keep your things from getting lost and make it much easier to carry your items up the trail.

Sunscreen, Rain Gear, Bug Repellent & Sunglasses

You never know exactly what conditions you will encounter at the crag and it is always best to be prepared for anything.
