Bouldering

Bouldering is an exciting and fast growing style of climbing that is very social and a great way for climbers to hone their climbing skills and build strength.

Bouldering etiquette

  • We encourage the use of liquid chalk to help keep our facility clean from chalk dust. Please start all climbs with liquid chalk and you may use powdered chalk to top up. Avoid over chalking
  • Take off your harness before bouldering
  • Brush the holds after you’ve climbed
  • If problems overlap, let the person already on the wall finish
  • Do not “spray” beta
