Bouldering

What is it? Vertical and horizontal climbing beneath the 10-foot bouldering line. Bouldering can be done during regular Fitness Center hours. Inquire at the Fitness Center counter. Climbing gear provided.

Belay

What is it? A variety of techniques used to exert tension on the climbing rope being used to keep a climber safe from harm by preventing them from falling. Every top rope climber must have a certified belayer.

Belay Certification Course

Belay passes are available by taking a belay certification course from the Fitness Center for $25.This course teaches the safety and skills necessary to belay other climbers.

Option: enroll in for credit Rock Climbing class (PHED 155), see below.

Once you are belay certified you can assist other top rope climbers. Climbers often obtain belay passes together so they can provide belay assistance to each other.
