MIX255: Mixed Climbing Technique- Two Day Clinic Now Indoors and Outdoors
A longtime favorite at Bozeman Ice Fest is getting an upgrade. MIX255 has historically offered participants an incredible opportunity to dive into mixed climbing techniques in a warm, welcoming indoor setting and this year, we're allowing participants to do that indoors and out.
On Day One, you'll head to the Mountain Project mixed climbing and drytooling cave, where you'll get personalized, one-on-one instruction in everything from tool and foot placements to body positioning, creativity on mixed and dry terrain, and how to approach a variety of holds and sequences. It’s the perfect space to slow things down, ask questions, and build solid technical foundations without the added pressure of the outdoors.
Day Two is all about taking those skills to the real world. You’ll head into Hyalite Canyon to put what you’ve learned into action on actual routes. Expect in-depth instruction on how to transfer gym-learned techniques to outdoor terrain, tips for on-sighting or projecting, reading routes, and support as you tackle real climbs with new confidence and understanding.
Whether you’re new to mixed climbing or looking to refine your technique with close-up coaching and real terrain application, this clinic is for all levels and climbing experience.
