Challenge Course
Through carefully designed and led activities, individuals and teams explore communication, group dynamics, confidence,
decision-making, team spirit, trust, cooperation, motivation, creativity, conflict resolution, diversity and feedback. We
accomplish this by creating a physically and emotionally safe environment in which individuals and teams are free to step
outside of their comfort zone and take a risk. Another key element to our program is fun! We believe the team that plays
together stays together, and people are much more willing to learn when fun is involved.

Climbing Clinics at The Rock
Beginner Belay Lesson
In this lesson, you will safely learn proper top-rope belay techniques. In addition, you will learn harness safety checks, knots,
climbing commands, and anchoring techniques. You will be required to take a top rope belay test on a later date (at least
24 hours later) before you are endorsed to belay at The Rock. The belay test can be administered at any time during open
climbing hours.

Intro to Gym Lead Climbing (Maximum 4 students)
Part One: If your only experience is top-roping, this is the lesson for you. You will learn safe and efficient lead belaying, clip
protection and lead climbing techniques. Participants will practice lead climbing with a top-rope backup and gain the experience
necessary to pass the Lead Endorsement Class. This lesson does not result in a Lead Endorsement.
Part Two: This gym lead climbing series will get you on the “sharp end.” You will learn the process of a dynamic belay and
experience lead climbing without a top-rope backup. Participants will practice taking and catching real lead falls and learn
how to do it safely. You will be required to take a lead endorsement test on a later date (at least 24 hours after) before you
are endorsed to lead climb at The Rock. The lead endorsement test will be by appointment only.
