The Narragansett Chapter of the Appalachian Mountain Club (non-profit) offers a beginner and intermediate rock climbing instruction each Spring. The course consists of three progressive classes and is intended for beginning climbers and those gym climbers who want to make the transition to the outdoors and eventually go on to multi-pitch trad climbs which the group organizes each month. A benefit of the course is that you meet experienced climbers and have the chance to develop climbing friendships.
