BOULDERING No charge Bouldering is climbing without roped protection on the wall or boulder. Climbers only climb as high as they are willing to fall, and emphasis is placed on traversing as you climb. It is a good introduction to the sport of climbing, requires little training and equipment, and is excellent for building strength and endurance. Falls are protected with “crash pads” under the climb. 18

This course requires you to demonstrate partial competence of the original class material. OEC Refresher information, study guide, and scenario discussion are available in August from www.nsp.org, on the Education/OEC page. Completion of a refresher extends
your certification for one year, effectively re-certifying in the entire course after three years. It is best to start preparing early so that you are comfortable with the skills and skipping an annual refresher invalidates continuous recertification of the entire course. Valid OEC certification also requires a current CPR for the Professional Rescuer certification. Estimated registration fee for non-Ski Patrol members is $56, You are required to pay on site with cash or check. Register early with the OVC so they can adequately prepare.
