Guided Multipitch Climbing
Reaching new heights
Join a local queer guide on a multipitch route and enjoy the best views around!
Multipitch routes are too tall to climb in a single rope length, so climbers use different strategies to incrementally ascend the rock.
Our guided multipitch climbing days are completely customized to your goals, fitness, and experience; they're also an opportunity to learn new skills and take your own adventures to the next level.
Details and Scheduling
Guided multipitch climbing days are private trips, with a maximum of 2 participants per trip. Pricing may vary based on location.
