FAQ:
​
Do I need previous rock climbing experience?
No! We have spots that are perfect for beginners.
Is there a minimum age requirement to climb?
No. But participants must be large enough to fit in our smallest harnesses. All participants under the age of 18 must also be accompanied by a legal guardian.
What if I am afraid of heights?
Fear of heights is one of the most natural fears out there. It is actually a really useful survival instinct. We will start out slow and small and learn to trust our equipment. If we are feeling good and enjoying ourselves then we can work bigger!
Can I bring my own equipment?
Sure! We will just need to inspect it to make sure it is in good condition.
We have a group with both new and experienced climbers. Do you have a location for everyone?
We do! We have climbing walls that have all levels of climbs from very beginner to expert. We can definitely keep everyone engaged!
