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.

No time to hang around!
Today is the final day to lock in unlimited summer climbing for just $225.
Make this the summer you finally send the project, climb more consistently, and somehow end up at the gym four days a week “by accident.”

New product alert! We are happy to introduce Nadi Botanicals for skin repair and relief after those long climbing sessions. Here is a little message from Sara!
I’m Sara Rampersaud, a long-time 5.life member and the owner of Nadi, a local herbal company for outdoor athletes. Our flagship product, Bonesetter’s Remedy, is a natural pain relief and recovery spray based on Zheng Gu Shui, a 500-year-old formula originally designed for martial arts training. Our family adapted this formula for climbers like us who struggle with hard to treat acute and chronic pain at the gym and remote crags where help is often far away. You can check us out at
www.NadiBotanicals.com

What a weekend.
Thank you to all of the athletes, volunteers, families, and supporters who made Adaptive Ascents such a special event. Your energy, determination, and community spirit are what make days like this so meaningful.
We’re grateful to everyone who showed up, climbed hard, gave a catch, and helped create an unforgettable experience.

CWA Summit in Salt Lake lived up to it.
Ian earned his PRS2, and Jami got his PRS and Work at Height Provider (professional routesetting certification), Olivia dove into youth programming and setting, and Mardi was there as part of the CWA board, with Vanessa there as COO.
Good crew, good energy, and a really fun week. We love seeing the continued growth of our sport and the community!
