Itinerary:

NOTE: This climbing event will NOT have classes arranged.

Vertically Inclined Rock Gym is a great indoor rock gym with plenty of space to climb on. They are equiped with top rope systems, lead climb areas and pulleys. They also offer lots of bouldering space for those not ready for ropes.

This is the first of hopefully many semi-regular climbing nights where we can just get together and climb. There is no predetermined structure to the activity. You may top rope if you have certification to do so. Otherwise, you may boulder. Prices vary significantly depending on what you would like to do and what equipment you need to rent. Please see VIRG's rate schedule to see what you will need. They also offer multi-use punch passes if you plan to go regularly. No previous experience is necessary for bouldering, but you do need to have completed the belay check if you wish to top rope.

Please note that neither I nor any other EOC member in attendence will teach climbing, so if you want lessons, please arrange it with VIRG, or wait for future climbing events with classes.
