Feeling comfortable on top-rope, and ready to learn a new style of climbing? Learn how to lead climb in our Lead Climbing Class.
Lead climbing is a more advanced style of climbing that involves clipping your rope into fixed gear on the wall and placing your own protection as you climb up the wall. The class will consist of climbing 5-6 routes in the 5.7-5.9 range, practicing clipping and lead belaying.
If you cannot make a class during the normally scheduled times, we can run private classes as long as we have at least 3 people who want to take the class.
