Yosemite Moutaineering Offering Climbing Package for Girls Only

Instead of the boring ol’ bachelorette party in Las Vegas where you’re liable to drink way too much, do things you wouldn’t want anyone else to find out, and possibly wind up with a really bad tattoo you wouldn’t wnat to show your husband or boyfriend head up to Yosemite and get in a little one on one time with the girls and a big, hard piece of granite.

Los Angeles Times: “Rock climbing can be intimidating for beginners - there’s all those foreign terms like ‘belay’ and ‘rappel’ and ‘dihedral’ that don’t easily roll off the tongue. Then there’s the actual climbing itself, a somewhat precarious venture involving hard, unforgiving terrain (that’s the ‘rock’ part) and heights (that would be your ‘climbing’ part).

MountainSo it’s understandable that some people, namely women, might want to be with their own gender as they take to the ropes while learning the ropes. The Yosemite Mountaineering School understands this, and is now offering Girls on Granite, a package offered twice this month that includes a full day of instruction with a certified female instructor, plus a half-day guided hike with a female guide, and two nights lodging.”
