IGK COMMUNITY CLIMBS
About IGK Community Climbs (CC):
We have been inspired by our clients and friends who have made it possible for us to create IGK Community Climbs (CC) because we care about you and those of you who are newcomers to this wonderful extreme outdoor activity. All interested are welcome!
We have our previous clients and newcomers' best climbing interests in mind because we teach very basic and fundamental climbing skills to those who are climbing for the first time ever. We also give previous clients the chance to gain the "hands-on" practice and experience that is needed to develop and master skill sets taught to them in previously taken IGK courses because we understand how difficult it can be to retain newly taught skills learned in a previous course.
Most importantly, the IGK difference is that we understand how nerve-racking and risky climbing can feel when practicing newly learned skills on one's own for the first time or with a partner whom one just met for the first time; hence, IGK has opted for the best way to help our clients practice, review, get to know each other and gain the confidence that will help enable them to take their skills above and beyond under the care and supervision of experienced instructors and guides.

Required Information:
Before we can guarantee you a spot with us, we require a few
things first for insurance purposes and for your overall safety and
personal peace of mind. We need ALL of the following information to
make our task of processing things far easier:
-Full Name(as written on passport)
-Nationality
-Passport Number
-Korean Alien Registration Number and Status(E2, A1, F4, etc...)
-Date of Birth
-Resident Address(preferably written in Korean)
About This Trip:
After we have met, we will fit shoes, followed by a twenty minute hike to the crag. Once at the crag, we will fit gear and briefly discuss safety awareness and basic climbing techniques to help you up the rock. Our instructors will set up a number of top-ropes on various routes throughout the day in order to give you a fuller and more exciting experience out on the rock.
What To Bring:
Don't worry about the climbing gear. IGK PROVIDES ALL THE NECESSARY CLIMBING GEAR! This includes: helmet, shoes, harness, and chalkbag.
Rock climbing involves a lot of flexible movement, so we recommend
that you wear loose fitting clothing and a pair of hikers or tennies
for the hike in. Although TEVAs should be fine, please do not wear
slipper-like sandals or thong sandals for the hike in; however,
sandals and slippers packed in on the hike make comfortable feet while
not climbing in the normally less than comfortable climbing shoes.
It will likely be chilly and possibly even cold. So, we recommend that you wear more than just a single layer. We suggest a loose nylon short-sleeve shirt, a long-sleeve fleece shirt, a fleece jacket and a lightweight windbreaker. Please avoid wearing cotton, for example, tight blue jeans and cotton shirts!
A small backpack, hat, camera, half-liter of water, tissue and a cold lunch should do the trick!

IGK-CC NON-REFUND POLICY:
All IGK-CC payments are non-refundable. We do not refund payments
for sudden illness, injury or any other personal mishap; however, if
you notify us at least a week in advance that you will be unable to
participate in the originally intended upon IGK-CC, we will gladly push
your payment to another future IGK-CC; this advancement is only valid
the remainder of that particular climbing season. For example, if you
missed an outing in March, your payment is only good for any other
IGK-CC during the Spring season.
Please do your best to plan your
personal schedule carefully and notify us no later than one week in
advanced in order to avoid forfeiting your deposit unnecessarily. All
IGK-CC payments are non-refundable.
IGK CC Rain & Policy:
Despite weather forecasts or conditions, IGK CC events will continue as planned because we do go "Harder and Higher" at IGK. In the unfortunate event that precipitation prevails to the point where IGK deems climbing to unreasonably wet and the scheduled outing is cancelled prior to departure, IGK will forward your deposit to the next desired IGK-CC outing without penalty. In the event IGK deems conditions to be unsafe during the outing, and absolutely no climbing is done due to deteriorating weather conditions, IGK will refund 50% of your original payment in order to cover basic costs per client and processing fees and the remaining 50% will be forwarded to the next desired IGK-CC.
