Rock Climbing Wall
The rock climbing was built by Entre Prise, Inc. and consists of five 23'-25' top rope courses to accommodate multiple users of every ability. The natural cracks and rocks on the wall allow climbers to climb the wall instead of simply using standard climbing holds. To vary the difficulty and multiplicity of the routes, our holds come from many different manufacturing companies and routes are changed as often as possible. Users of the wall also have the ability to boulder on their own up to 14’ on the wall. We also offer one automatic belayer that allows climbers to climb at their own pace and as often as they would like to climb. We offer several climb challenges each year, where participants have two consecutive semesters to complete the challenges. Each participant completing this task will be given a T-shirt for their accomplishments.
