Discover Climbing is the best value; it gets you on all the walls and two weeks FREE.

Open Door Program

The Open Door Program is a tool for growing and serving the climbing community across all demographics. This program is a community wide effort to make climbing accessible and to cultivate a climbing community that reflects the diversity of the geographic regions we serve. We feel that is best accomplished through reducing as many barriers to climbing as possible, one of those being financial.

Offering a program like this requires the entire community to believe in it for it to be sustainable. This belief includes honesty and trust about true financial need. Additionally, the ability to offer this program is limited and depends on community supporters (Door Openers). We can’t do it without you.

523 Open Door Members

41 Door Openers

$1 For Access

Dollar for Access is our in-house initiative to help provide and preserve access to climbing (both indoors and out) for all.

🎉 Exciting Update: Grigri’s on All Fixed Ropes! 🧗‍♀️

Starting December 2nd, all fixed ropes at our facility will have a Grigri belay device permanently attached. If you already have a Top Rope proficiency card, you’ll need to demonstrate your proficiency using a Grigri. Don’t worry—quick lessons will be available if needed!

Why this change?
Assisted braking devices (we are using Grigris) are becoming the standard in climbing gyms across the country and internationally. Our goal is to make climbing more accessible for everyone who visits us. This system allows us to introduce new climbers to the joy of climbing, helping them get on the ropes and up the wall with ease.

Thank you for being part of our amazing climbing community! 🧗✨
