Bouldering

Bouldering is rock climbing without ropes below a set height limit. Because there are no ropes, boulder routes or "problems" often trend side to side and not just straight up and down. Many people enjoy bouldering on its own because it can be done without a partner. Our walls offer a variety of problems ranging to from beginner (V0) to advanced (V9+)

Top Rope

Top Rope climbing uses ropes running through an anchor at the top of the wall and a belayer at the bottom. As the climber ascends higher the belayer takes in slack, this causes any falls to be very short. This is a great place to learn and grow with a climbing partner working on longer routes and getting used to being higher up.

Belay Lessons

Auto-Belay

Auto-belays require no previous experience to use, they’re a great tool to get climbing on your own. Rent a harness to use and get a quick orientation to get climbing. Children under 13 need to be supervised on the auto-belays by an adult who has done an orientation.

Lead CLimbing

Lead climbing is the next step in rope climbing, with the climber pulling the rope and coiling it at the bottom. The climber and belayer attach into the rope and begin climbing. As the climber ascends they have to clip into protection on the way up (quickdraws) these essentially act as checkpoints if a climber falls. Routes tend to be harder as you have to account for clipping and any falls tend to be larger than top rope.

Lead Lessons
