| What is the Trad Camp all about?
We are offering a 3 day program for aspiring trad climbers who want to learn the principles of trad climbing. We will focus on each climber individually so you get the most from your time at the Trad Camp. When you leave you’ll climb stronger, smarter, safer, and more efficiently, and you’ll have the skills you need for leading traditional routes, through the application of the Warriors Way Program.
