SUMMARY:Rappel and Gear Workshop - Boulder\, CO
DESCRIPTION:Rappel and Gear Workshop      \nWant to try out different canyon specific descenders and canyoneering ropes?  Interested in checking out some of the best packs for canyoneering?\nThis Rappel and Gear Workshop is designed for those that already know how to rappel.  (Otherwise\, please sign up for the morning Learn to Rappel course.)  From 1:00 – 4:00 pm\, we will have multiple ropes set up (by request)\, and you can see how they feel on rappel.  You can either use your own descender\, or try one of the many we will bring for folks to try!  We will also give tips on rappelling techniques.  Feel free to ask us any gear or technique questions as well.  We are happy to help!  From 4 to 5pm\, we will go over packs and rope bags\, and answer any other gear questions as well.  (Specific gear options are detailed below. Feel free to reach out to us with other gear requests such as canyon harnesses; we may have them for you to check out.) \nThis Rappel and Gear Workshop will last all afternoon from 1:00 – 5:00 pm so bring snacks & water!  You will be required to sign a release of liability and assumption of risk. We should be able to do many rappels on different ropes and descenders. \nGear for this class can be provided by request.  You are also welcome (and encouraged) to bring and use your own gear.  We will do a quick inspection to make sure it’s appropriate and in good shape.  Feel free to also bring any gear you have questions about.  We’re happy to show you how to use your own descender and to try to answer any/all gear questions. \nWe will be scrambling around a lot as we rappel\, scramble back up\, rappel\, scramble back up\, rappel\, scramble back up\, etc.\, so wear some comfortable shoes with good ‘grip’.  Trail\, running\, approach shoes all work well (don’t wear rock climbing shoes or open toe footwear such as sandals).  Bring sunscreen\, sunglasses\, maybe a hat\, and clothes/layers appropriate for the forecast.  The training location is close to Nederland\, so it’s usually 5 to 10 degrees cooler than Boulder – so factor that into your gear choices. \nThis Rappel and Gear Workshop open to anyone who already knows how to rappel\, especially if you want to see and try out different ropes\, descenders\, packs and rope bags prior to purchasing your own. If you’d like to organize a private event for your students\, colleagues\, friends or for a family reunion\, just give us a shout!  This event also is a tremendous team-building activity! \nThe cost for this workshop is only $79 per person!  The $79 is non-refundable but may be put toward a future Rappel and Gear Workshop in the same calendar year if 30-day notice is given cancelling your participation on this date.  Read more company/course policies here. \nInstructor:  AJ Pastula \nHere is the specific gear we can provide for folks to see/try: \nRopes: \n\n Imlay 9.2mm Canyonero\n Imlay 8.3mm Canyon Fire\n Imlay 8mm Canyon Rope\n Imlay 6mm Canyon Pull Cord (for inspection\, not for rappel)\n Bluewater Canyon DS 9.2mm\n Bluewater Canyonator 9mm\n Bluewater Canyon Pro 8mm\n Bluewater Canyon Pro DS 8mm\n Bluewater Canyon Extreme 8mm\n Sterling Canyon Lux 8mm (for inspection\, not for rappel)\n CE4Y Thick Line 10mm\n CE4Y Pick Line 9mm\n CE4Y Quick Line 7.6mm\n CE4Y Slick Line 6.0mm and Sick Line 8.7mm (for inspection\, not for rappel)\n Glacier Black Trident 8.5mm\n Glacier Black Newt 8.5mm\n Glacier Black PoliWog 6.5mm (for inspection\, not for rappel)\n\nDescenders: \n\n Sterling ATS\n Imlay Canyon Gear Critr3\n BG Gear Sqwurel v4\n Glacier Black Element\n Glacier Black Pivot v2\n On Rope Hoodoo\n CE4Y Devil 8\n CE4Y Axe 8\n Rock Exotica Totem\n Petzl Pirana v1\n Could bring a mini-rack (used more in caving) and/or ATC XP or Guide (used more in climbing) by request\n Could bring multiple types of figure 8 by request\n\nPacks: \n\n Imlay Canyon Gear Heaps 48L\n Imlay Canyon Gear Kolob 37L\n Imlay Canyon Gear Spry 32L\n Imlay Canyon Gear Leprechaun 16L\n Slot Guide 50L (S/M and M/L Sizes)\n Slot Rapide 38L\n Slot Canyon 26L\n Slot Wetsuit Bag\n Rodcle Gloces 35L\n CE4Y Speedy Pack 45L\n Gear Perspectives Guide Edition 55L\n\nRope Bags: \n\n Imlay Large Rope Silo\n Imlay Small Rope Silo\n Imlay Bagette\n Imlay Bagorino\n Glacier Black DAB 19L\n Glacier Black Cañon Ball 18L\n Glacier Black 1/2 DAB aka Canyon Clutch 6L\n Gear Perspectives Double Ended Rope Bag\n Gear Perspectives Rope Bag\n\nMisc Gear for Inspection: \n\n Imlay Super Pull String\, Bag and Fiddlestick (Amsteel 1/8” x 300’)\n Sandtrap\n Potshots

SUMMARY:UBERFest: Death Valley 2026
DESCRIPTION:UBERFest: Death Valley 2026\nWednesday\, December 9 – Sunday\, December 13\nRegistration will open in early June. Check back then.  \nWelcome to the 2026 Death Valley UBERFest\, a gathering of canyoneers from near and far who wish to explore the canyons and natural beauty of Death Valley National Park. \nWhat’s the purpose of an UBERFest?  The obvious answer to that question is to have fun descending beautiful canyons\, but those of you who have attended these events in the past know that there’s so much more going on. UBER Adventures hosts these festivals and plans activities with the following objectives in mind: \n\nEducation and Skill Development: Provide opportunities for participants to learn and enhance their canyoneering and leadership skills.\nEnvironmental Stewardship: Foster a sense of responsibility for the preservation of the natural environment where canyoneering takes place. Promote Leave No Trace principles and sustainable practices.\nCommunity Building: Create a sense of community among canyoneers\, allowing participants to network\, share experiences\, and build connections with like-minded individuals.\nSafety Awareness: Emphasize the importance of safety in canyoneering.\nInclusivity: Foster an inclusive and diverse environment\, encouraging people of all ages\, backgrounds\, and skill levels to participate in the festival.\nFun and Recreation: Provide a platform for participants to enjoy the thrill of canyoneering in a festive and supportive atmosphere.\nPartnerships: Collaborate with outdoor organizations\, governmental agencies\, and others to enhance the overall success and impact of the festival.\n\nTHE EVENT\nAs canyoneering is an inherently dangerous activity\, this event is only open to those with professional canyoneering training or significant canyoneering experience. Priority registration will be given to those who have completed an UBER Adventures course within the last 3 years or who volunteer and are accepted to lead canyons during the event. If you have never taken an UBER Adventures course or have never attended an UBERFest before\, you must call and speak to me directly for permission to attend before registering. \n\nThe group tent sites are limited to 80 participants.\nYou must pre-register for this event. Participants will be selected by random lottery if pre-registration exceeds 80 people.\nWhen pre-registration closes\, participants will be notified by email and will be provided a unique code to register for the event. To register for the event\, you will have 10 days to respond to the email notification. If you have not registered within 10 days\, I will assume you do not plan to attend and will release the space to the next individuals on the list.\nAn event spreadsheet with all of the details of the event will be available approximately 2 months before the event.\n\nCOST: There are 2 registration options. If you would like to stay at the tent-only group site at Furnace Creek Campground\, the fee is $50. If you plan to arrange your own accommodations\, the fee is $40.  (NOTE: Registration fees are non-refundable and non-transferable.) Also\, remember that this is a National Park\, so you will need a National Parks Pass (one for each car entering the park) or you will have to pay the park entry fee. \n   \nCANYONEERING IN DEATH VALLEY NATIONAL PARK\nUBER Adventures has obtained a Special Recreational Use Permit from Death Valley National Park for this festival to ensure a successful event for everyone. This means that the event will be more structured than in the past in order to abide by campground and park rules and regulations. To participate in this event\, you must read and agree to follow all campground and park rules and regulations by signing a participant agreement. Anyone who violates campground or park rules will be removed from all group activities for the remainder of the festival and may be banned from future events. \nTHE CANYONS: There are a number of different mountain ranges in Death Valley with a variety of canyons to fit all skill levels. AND – permits are not required to descend canyons here. Bolting is not allowed in the park\, so this is the perfect place to hone your natural anchor building skills. Bring your A-game! \nCANYON GROUPS: Canyon rosters / sign-up sheets will be on the spreadsheet and on paper at the group campsite. \nPARTICIPANT RESPONSIBILITIES:  You are responsible for making informed decisions about the canyon trips you choose to join\, both ahead of time and on the day of the trip. You are responsible for supplying your own personal canyon gear and familiarizing yourself with the canyon beta. You should be prepared to be an active team member of each group you join (no passengers). You are responsible for contributing to a welcoming and respectful space throughout the event. This includes respecting camp rules\, treating the campground with respect\, and following Leave No Trace principles and practices. The following behaviors are prohibited and will result in the removal of the individual who committed the behavior from the remaining canyon rosters of the event: sexual or other forms of harassment\, the use of illegal drugs or other substances\, and the use of alcohol or marijuana while in canyon. \nTRANSPORTATION: You are responsible for providing your own transportation to and from the event as well as getting to the canyons. All canyons are accessible via passenger vehicles. Please try to carpool to the event as parking space is somewhat limited. Two-three people to a car would be reasonable when you consider camping gear\, coolers\, canyoneering gear and shuttling to the canyons. \nWEATHER: The average high/low for this time of year is 65°/38°\, making it the perfect time to explore these canyons! \nBETA: Start thinking about which canyons you’d like to descend and/or lead. \nRopewiki: Death Valley National Park – ropewiki\nBluuGnome: BluuGnome.com – Canyoneering Route Descriptions for Death Valley National Park\, California. \n \nTHE CAMPGROUND (BASECAMP)\nTHE GROUP CAMPSITE:  I’ve reserved group sites #1 and #2 at Furnace Creek Campground for a maximum of 80 people. We have group site #1 from 1:00 pm Wednesday through noon Sunday. We have group site #2 From 1:00 pm Thursday through noon on Sunday for late arrivals. The group campground is for tent camping only with limited vehicle parking. The campground accommodations include water\, flush toilets\, picnic tables\, and fire pits/grills. We can accommodate up to 80 people\, but only 20 cars\, 10 cars at each of the two sites! \nThe Group Campsite will also lend itself for all group activities including gathering for ridesharing\, workshops\, the Saturday evening dinner\, games and especially\, CAMARADERIE!  Because we will always want to get a super early start for our canyons and morning shuttles\, our evenings at the group campsite will end early so people can get their sleep. \nThe campground also has RV spaces and individual tent sites available. If you want to go that route\, you may be able to reserve one on your own. Individual reservations at Furnace Creek are now open. Stovepipe Wells (first come\, first serve)\, Texas Springs\, Sunset\, and Slabby Acres (free) are other camping options. Or you can splurge and stay at more luxurious accommodations nearby. If this is your choice\, you’ll be responsible for making (and paying for) your own arrangements. \nCAMPGROUND RULES: The following regulations must be strictly followed: \n\nQuiet Hours: 10:00 pm – 7:00 am\nGenerator Hours: 7:00 am – 7:00 pm (Do not leave generators running unattended.)\nFood/Trash: Unattended food\, garbage or cooking equipment must be sealed in a vehicle or solid container.\nCampfires: No wood gathering. Fires only in NPS grates as provided. Fires must not be left smoldering or unattended. No trash in fire grate.\nDriving: Observe speed limits and one-way signs in the campground.\nAdditional services such as showers\, pool\, and laundry facilities are available for a fee nearby at privately owned Furnace Creek Ranch\n\nCAMPING GEAR and FOOD: You are responsible for providing your own camping gear/supplies and food – – except – we will have a MAKE-YOUR-OWN PIZZA PARTY on Saturday evening between 6:30-9:00 pm.  Just BYOB. This might also be the time for us to have movie night and an awesome campfire (weather permitting)\, so bring some firewood! In addition\, there are a variety of shops and restaurants nearby. \n
