Tour Plan and Info- BISHOP
TOWN AMMENITIES: Bishop is our headquarters and home town for a reason!  Sitting at 4'000 ft. we are in a deep valley between 2 massive mountain ranges towering on either side of town with 14'000 ft mountains...stunning is an understatement! Not to mention world-class rock climbing. It has all things you need for a good vacation...great restaurants and coffee shops, a brewery, distillery, large grocery store, outdoor shops, as well as artesian swimming holes and hot springs nearby. CAMP LIFE: We will be staying at Browns Millpond Campground just outside of Bishop with magnificent views of the mountains, electricity, water, hot showers, coin-op laundry, a pond, horseshoe pits, hiking and mountain bike trails. We will have a few adjacent campsites with enough space to car or tent camp. WHAT TO BRING: sleeping bag, pad, tent, camp chair Clothing- May can be very hot...or cool, depending on the weather at the time. Bring clothing for either instance: sun protectant clothing for being in the sun and warm clothes and rain jacket just in case. Hat, sunscreen, sunglasses, beanie Good walking shoes Yoga Mat Water bottles or bladder (at least 2 or 3 liters) Climbing Gear- Shoes, Helmet, Harness, Belay Device, Chalk Bag and any of the other gear you may own.  Also, a cheap pair of gardening or leather gloves for belaying can be nice! *We can provide any of these items if you do not own them at no charge!! ***IF YOU DO NOT HAVE ANY OF THESE THINGS, WE CAN RENT YOU A TENT, SLEEPING BAG, ETC. BUT LET ME KNOW BEFOREHAND!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

HOW MANY PARTICIPANTS COME BY THEMSELVES?

The majority of women come to our retreats alone - somewhere around 70%.  If you are hesitating to join because you would be coming solo, know that you will not be "alone" and these retreats offer a wonderful sense of community, more so than any of our other courses...which, is why we love them!!

WHAT IS THE AVERAGE AGE OF THE WOMEN WHO ATTEND?

We generally have a wide range of ages at our retreats. The average age tends to fall between the ages of 25 to 55. But, we've had many participants from 13-late 60's join us!

WHAT IF I'VE NEVER CLIMBED BEFORE?

Being a climbing school, teaching someone how to climb safely and confidently is what we do best!

WHAT IS YOUR CANCELLATION POLICY?

We have a very strict cancellation policy.

WHAT HAPPENS IF THE WEATHER IS POOR?

We do our best to choose dates where this won't be an issue, but it's always a possibility.  If we cannot go climbing, we will propose alternative activities such as technical skills lessons like anchor building, rappelling,  multi-pitch clinics, or go hiking.

If you're worried about weather ruining your experience, we suggest buying "cancel for any reason" trip protection as we will not be providing any refunds due to weather related issues.

CAN I BRING MY PET?

Unfortunately, we cannot allow pets on any of our group trips or clinics.

WILL I BE ABLE TO LEAD CLIMB?

We base our decision on this with fluidity.  Our guides will determine whether or not they will allow leading based on participants prior experience, routes available for leading, and mock leading competency.  If this is a skill you want to learn on the retreat, communicate with your guides and they will try to get you some chances to learn the art of leading during the retreat.
