Open ClimbsOpen climbs are offered by organizations such as municipal park & recreation programs, held at local parks, and open to the public. Climbers register as individuals, and each event typically has a maximum capacity.
Participants are required to pre-register, submitting waiver and payment prior to event. Registration is handled directly with the host organization. For these events, the climbing tree and area are set up prior to the event. Participants are given instructions as a group, then fitted into gear and put on rope individually. Personal attention and instruction is provided to each climber until the point they reach approx. 5ft above ground and tie their first safety knot. Remaining climbers are run through same sequence until all ropes have climbers. Those participants not on rope will be put on rope as ropes become available once previous climber is belayed to ground by facilitator. Open Climbs have scheduled start and stop times. Participants can continue to climb under facilitation until the scheduled end of the event, with the goal of having all climbers returned to ground and off rope at the end time.
