Field Trip: Deposit

Get your crew on the wall with the use of Auto Belay devices! Auto Belays are great tools that allow participants to climb “roped” walls without a human belayer. Instead the climber clips into the Auto Belay device, which connects to the top of the wall. If the climber falls or finishes the climb, the auto belay slowly lowers the climber to the ground.

By booking and paying the non-refundable $60 deposit, you are reserving this date and time for a Peak Experiences Group Auto Belay Event!

This event is used as a booking tool for a Field Trip time slot and there will only be one participant - the person booking the event. The complete list of up to fourty (40) participants will be filled out in a separate private event, which you will be invited to manage shortly after successful payment of deposit for this booking!
