Our Mission

EDUCATE climbers by providing access to services that introduces them to ethics and their role as environmental stewards while showing them the physical, mental, and emotional benefits of climbing.

What this means and looks like in our community:

climbing education and youth programming

We work with our local gym - Elemental Health and Fitness - and local grants to provide scholarships for youth climbing camps and programming.
