I have used Girth Hitch multiple times now for both personal and corporate outings and have enjoyed absolutely every experience. We have done AST, Companion Rescue, Ice Climbing, Sport Climbing, Trad Climbing, Alpine Skills, Rock Rescue, & Via Ferrata. Each experience has been incredibly empowering and we are now doing many of these things proficiently on our own. Stop making excuses and get after it! You won’t regret it!
