Join us at Calico Hills, The Sandstone Quarry, or Willow Springs for a day of single pitch sport or trad climbing. Each half or full day experience is tailored to your specific needs.
Want to learn? We’ll choose the right flow so that you can maximize your day out at the cliff.
Just want to climb? We’ll get the ropes up on the best routes around so all you have to do is enjoy the movement.
A full day on the rock, whether that’s a series of shorter routes linked together or a moderate 4-6 pitch line completed in eight hours or less. Objectives are always customized for your ability and goals, the day is built around you rather than a set itinerary.
Building your multi-pitch systems and skills? Guides teach what you need to move safely and efficiently when you’re high above the ground: equalizing bolted and traditional anchors, proper rope management, protecting the follower, belay transitions, multiple rappels, and bailing.
Already dialed on your systems? Want someone to lead the hardest pitches? Pick the objective, and we’ll keep the day moving so you can focus on the enjoying the climbing.
