What are Earth Treks requirements for passing the Belay Safety Check?
The Belay Safety Check is necessary for your safety and the safety of the Earth Treks community at large. While you must demonstrate the required skills competently with minimal guidance to pass, we encourage you to ask questions and practice briefly before starting your safety check. Climbers are encouraged to repeat the safety check if needed, but must wait a minimum of one day between attempts. If you do not pass the safety check you can still climb, but you won’t be able to belay or tie knots that day. The minimum age for belaying is 14.
