Climbing

Members and Non-members are welcome to visit the Climbing Wall anytime during staffed hours. A Climbing Wall Team member will belay climbers, ensuring safety and proper use of equipment. Climbing staff is available for demonstration, advice, and guidance. Staff can answer questions about bouldering, lead climbing, belaying, harnesses, route difficulty and much more. Limit two climbs per person. Climbing shoes may be rented for $3 dollars. The Climbing Staff is happy to belay climbers as time permits, but we encourage all climbers who enjoy the Climbing Wall to take the Orientation Clinic to “learn the ropes” and have access to the Climbing Wall during non-staffed hours.
