SUMMARY:Canyon Rescue Course (ACE-L4) Los Angeles\, CA
DESCRIPTION:Canyon Rescue Course (ACE-L4) Los Angeles\, CA      \nTrain Hard.  Plan Well.  Be Safe.\n                                                    …but accidents still happen.\nThis Canyon Rescue Course by Uber Adventures teaches the skills necessary to perform immediate\, in-canyon self-rescues\, partner rescues\, and how to assist with group emergencies … all with your groups’ normal rack-and-pack (the minimal gear you should carry on your harnesses and in your packs.) \nBoost your confidence and fill your mental toolbox with skills to handle technical emergencies. \nThis course not only teaches you the skills and methods necessary to execute a variety of rescue procedures\, but it provides the impetus for critical thinking through an emergency. \nHow would you help a canyoneer stuck on a rope?  How would you help an unconscious canyoneer stuck on a rope?  How quickly could you figure out how to convert a static block to a lowering system?  Could you haul a rappeller back to the top of a drop by yourself?  Have you ever been in a canyon\, assessing a fictional problem and felt helpless?  Are your responsibilities in a canyoneering event greater because you’re the leader/organizer?  Would you like to be a more valuable team member?  This course is vital for not only canyoneering leaders\, but also for conscientious recreational canyoneers who value their own safety and the safety of their party. \nWith the technical skills presented in this course\, you could prevent the need for calling in an expensive Search And Rescue team\, avoid putting rescuers at risk\, avoid spending the night in a canyon\, and continue a canyon descent with a non-critically injured teammate. \nPrerequisite:  Participants should have some advanced formal canyoneering-specific training.  This course builds on the skills taught in the Uber Adventures’ 3-day Technical Canyoneering Course (ACE-L1)\, the Advanced Canyoneering Course (ACE-L2) AND the Canyon Essentials Course (ACE-L3).  While we are not requiring the completion of each of those courses as a prerequisite\, those who have had advanced formal canyoneering training will find it easier to ‘keep-up’ with this curriculum.  If you’re not sure if this is the course for you\, please give us a call and we can discuss your skills and training. \nThe topics and skills covered will include: \n\nKnots\, Rope Grabs & Progress Capture Methods\nAnchors\, Rigging & Friction Dynamics for Rescue\nMechanical Advantage and Haul Systems\nConverting Static Rigging to Haul or Lower\nAssisted Rappel & Tandem Rappel Techniques\nHero Rescue\, Balancier Lift\nRappelling on a Tensioned Rope\nGuide Ropes\, Tag Lines\, Belays\nCut-and-Lower Procedures\nSpecial Ascending Techniques for Rescue\nPick-Off Procedures Scenario\nConsiderations for musculoskeletal injuries\n\n \nInstructor: Todd Kolberg \nRead company/course policies here.

SUMMARY:Technical Canyoneering Course (ACE-L1) Las Vegas\, NV
DESCRIPTION:Technical Canyoneering Course (ACE-L1) – Las Vegas\, NV\nLearn to Canyoneer!     \nCanyoneering and Canyoning are terms used to describe an adventure sport that combines hiking\, wading\, swimming\, jumping\, sliding\, boulder-hopping\, scrambling\, rock-climbing\, sometimes packrafting and always rappelling — often over waterfalls. \nCanyoneering is an emerging adventure sport in the US and has grown significantly in popularity over the past decade.  This sport has unique risks and requires a very specific set of technical skills to enjoy it safely.  Rock-climbing\, caving\, mountaineering and swift water training teach related skills for your ‘toolbox’\, but Canyoneering has become highly specialized\, and much of the gear and many of the techniques of Canyoneering are distinctly different from those of the other sports …and that’s where we come in! \nPrerequisite: None \nThis is a beginner to intermediate course which teaches the skills necessary to safely descend canyons as part of a group (being a competent participant and the knowledge to recognize and implement safe canyon practices). This course is designed to quickly get the beginner up-to-speed on basics\, to give both the rookie and intermediate canyoneer new tools for his/her toolbox and will help intermediate canyoneers refine their current skill set!  The topics and skills covered will include: \n\nKnots\, Bends and Hitches\nCanyon Rating System\nRules\, Ethics\, Style\, Communication and Courtesy\nSpecific Gear Choices\, Requirements\, Use and Care\nBelays\, Lowering and Handlines\nNatural\, Artificial\, Transient & Human Anchors\nStatic and Contingency Riggings\nRope Deployment\, Coiling\, Bagging and Etiquette\nRappelling Techniques & On-Rope Skills \n (Adding Friction Pre-rappel\, Mid-rappel\, Locking Off\, etc.)\nSpecialized Rappelling Techniques \n (Hard Starts\, Soft Starts\, Free-Hanging\, Over-Hanging\, etc.)\nBasic Climbing & Down Climbing Skills \n (Bridging\, Stemming\, Partner Assists\, Partner Captures\, etc.)\nSafety Checking and Basic Self-Rescue\nAnd\, within each of these broad subjects are a myriad of skills and tools.\n\nInstructors:  Luke Murray  \nThe cost of this course is only $495! (The course fee is non-refundable but may be put toward a future class during the same year if 7-day notice is given cancelling your participation in this course.)  Please read more course/company policies here. \nWe can supply you with all the gear you need for the course. All borrowed gear may be returned at the end of the last day of class. If you’d like to purchase canyoneering-specific gear before\, during\, or after the course\, check out our web store.

SUMMARY:UBERFest: Death Valley 2026
DESCRIPTION:UBERFest: Death Valley 2026\nWednesday\, December 9 – Sunday\, December 13\nPre-registration for this event opens April 15. Check back then for the link.  \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
