Kids Summer Rock Climbing!

For 5 weeks, our highly trained, AMGA (American Mountain Guides Association) guides will teach your kids about rock climbing and bouldering. We are happy to provide everything your child will need including harnesses, helmets, climbing shoes and chalk bags. We will visit several different areas to expose your children to different rock types and activities.

As the summer comes to an end I reflect on some wonderful times. One of which was Jordyn's time with the Sierra Scramblers. The experience was an exceptional one. She loved all of it and frequently talks about rock climbing. Thank you for the supportive, compassionate and patient approach you provided. We look forward to climbing with you again and would like to be scholarship sponsors next year as well. Many, many thanks!
