About The Event
We're really excited to work with Cleveland Metroparks on this Intro to Climbing clinic! It will be a great introduction to outdoor rock climbing on natural rock, as you will learn how to tie knowts, how to belay, proper climbing techniques and climbing terminology.
The rocks found at the Whipp’s Ledges in Hinckley Reservation are Sharon Conglomerate, a quartz sandstone. Cliffs range in height from 20 feet to nearly 50 feet high. Over 100 climbs offer something for everyone, and with ratings from 5.3 (easiest) to 5.12 (hardest), you are sure to find the perfect climb for you.
Details:
• Rock climbing equipment will be provided, including harnesses, helmets, and rock climbing shoes. If you have your own shoes, you may bring your own!
• Participants must be at least 14 years old.
• Dress for the weather; layers encouraged. The entire program will take place outdoors.
