“Chicks with Picks” may sound like some sort of crazy gang, but it’s really one of the premiere groups promoting climbing amongst women. Their 4 day intensive climbing clinic for women is coming up on March 22 (2012) in Red Rock Nevada, and during those next 4 days, you’ll enjoy some great instruction in small groups (4:1) for everyone from beginners to advanced. The trip can be extended, and heads-up, this covers just your climbing. The accommodations and meals are separate, but it’s designed to be very collegial so go with a friend and don’t be surprised if you make a new one.
