The Details
CLIMBING
All of our guides are trained by the AMGA and are experts at finding the right climbs. Guided climbing and instruction are available for climbers of all skill levels, from first-time beginners to intermediate and advanced climbers. We will have multiple instructors so we can split into smaller groups for the climbing portion of the day, depending on experience. We will focus on Intro instruction for those who have never climbed outside before, Intermediate instruction for climbers wanting to climb in the 5.9-5.10+ range, and Advanced for climbers wanting to join our guides on routes 5.10+-5.12.
Parents are welcome to join the morning of our final day of camp to watch their children climb.
CAMPING
- We will be hosting the camp at the Smith Rock Bivy. Climbers can hike directly from camp to the park. There are bathrooms, showers, and charging stations.
- There is a small chance our camping venue will change and if it does, we guarantee it will be of equal quality.
MEALS
Positive relationships with food and nutrition is a big deal to us. It is our goal to provide the best tasting food with the highest quality ingredients. Our guides will prepare breakfast and dinner - providing alternatives for anyone with dietary restrictions. We will have the youth make their own lunches out of food & snacks provided by us.
What is the Pay What You Can Option?
Climbing is not accessible for many people. But we hope to help make it a little more so.
We created our Pay What You Can option for those who can't afford the full cost or find the cost to be inhibitive. The process is simple and trust based.
We ask that possible participants ask themselves these two questions before taking us up on this option:
- Would you be able to comfortably afford attendance without a scholarship? (I see comfortably afford to mean that attendance wouldn’t put participants, or their parents, in a financially stressful position.)
- Are you in need of a full or partial scholarship?
From there, we have created discount codes in varying amounts to use at checkout so climbers can attend for as low as $600. We realize that this cost is still inhibitive but at this time we have no outside funding for our program and cannot afford to pay our staff a living wage and run the program at a lower rate. We hope to change this in the future, but aren't there quite yet.
Please use the codes if you need them but we kindly request that participants only use these codes if they NEED the financial assistance to attend so that we can continue this program for years to come.
Use these codes at checkout to apply the scholarship:
- YouthClimbing1000 for $1000 off the total cost
- YouthClimbing600 for $600 off the total cost
