Free gear rentals are provided by our sponsor @onwardguides, so bring your friends even if they’re new to climbing! There are always opportunities to lead and top rope, and we try to pick out spots that have a variety of grades.

Keep an eye on our story for backup plans in case of rain, and please reach out with any questions!

Sorry for the late post, but our meetup tonight will be at Sunshine City of Spanky’s Area, south of Keene Valley. It’s a fun little sport/trad mixed area, so if you’re been waiting for bolts, tonight’s your night! See you at 5:45pm. We climb past dark, so bring your headlamp!!

Tonight’s meet up is planned for the Owl’s Head crag in Cascade Pass! It’s a fun little crag with spectacular views and easy to moderate routes.

See you tomorrow night, July 30, for our weekly meet up! We’re climbing at the standout Pitchoff Chimney Cliff by Cascade Lakes. There’s something for everyone, whether is warming up on the Practice Wall, multi-pitching on one of the many routes that top out the cliff, or throwing yourself at the classic single pitch Roaches on the Wall (5.10).

We’ll meet at the pull-off across the street, but you’ll definitely see us on the cliff if you’re a little late. Directions and crag info at the link in our bio. Don’t forget your water and headlamp!

Harness/helmet/shoes provided courtesy of @onwardguides for those in need. Bring a friend!

UPDATE! Some folks are heading to the Beer Walls at 5pm instead to be near water and beat the heat. Can’t guarantee anyone will be at Poke-O!
