Women's Rock Climbing & Yoga Retreat

WHAT’S INCLUDED:

• All rock climbing gear
• All camping equipment (tent, sleeping bag, sleeping pad). 
• Three 6 hour climbing sessions with AMGA Apprentice Rock Guides
• Morning and afternoon yoga classes with Katie Paulson
• All meals, including snacks for lunch 
• 3 nights accommodation at Ken's Lake
• Pickup in Moab on Thursday, April 29th

WHAT’S NOT INCLUDED:

• Entrance fees into the park. We recommend purchasing the American the Beautiful Pass which can be found HERE. This gives you one year access to all National Parks, US Forest Service, and BLM. You can also purchase a 7 day pass for $30 at the local ranger station if you don't imagine yourself visiting more than one National Park in the coming year. 
• Gratuities to guides
• Trip Protection: we will host this retreat rain or shine. It is important to note that when climbing on sandstone we are required to wait 24 hours after precipitation until we  are allowed to climb. This is necessary to preserve the rock and protect climbers. We have chosen these dates because they present us the driest weather without being too hot. However, if the weather is poor we will propose alternative activities such as hiking, nature photography, skills lessons, etc. 

PHYSICAL REQUIREMENTS: 

• Ability to hike three miles over varied terrain while carrying a 15 lb backpack
• Ability to do 20 squats 
• Must be 18 years of age or older

OPTIONAL:

• Transportation during the retreat. Historically we have provided transportation during the retreat but with COVID concerns we encourage anyone who can to drive themselves. For those flying in you can either rent a car during your stay or we will rent cars large enough to ensure no one will have to sit directly next to other climbers (masks will be required and we will keep the windows cracked regardless the weather in shared cars)
• Camping Sunday, May 2nd and/or climbing Monday May 3rd
• Airport transfer to/from Canyonlands Field Airport only

GETTING TO KEN'S LAKE CAMPGROUND:From Moab, drive south on Highway 191 until you see signs for Ken's Lake, approximately 8 miles. Turn left off the highway and follow signs to the lake. The campground is just beyond the turn to the lake. Group Site A, where we will be staying, is in the first campground loop. 

GETTING TO MOAB:From Denver you can fly directly to Canyonlands Field Airport. We will provide transfer to the campsite from the airport for a $25 fee.
If flying into Moab is not an option, we recommend flying into Salt Lake City and hiring Road Runner Shuttle  to bring you to Moab. We will provide free pickup from downtown Moab to our campsite.
