The Rock Climbing Wall is an added feature of our course. The wall provides a… distinctive experiential learning experience to each and every person that participates in the rock climbing portion of our course. The 29- foot Rock Climbing Wall is a vertical challenge that provides physical and mental stresses to each climber. The wall has a variety of panels that have different challenges. The wall goes from challenging to difficult as you move from the right side to the left side as well as up!

 

Each climber takes a different route to reach the top which is one of the unique features of the wall. The wall presents a host of physical and mental challenges to each climber from attempting to climb to a fear of heights to trusting the belayer. The climber must make a conscience effort to maintain a positive mind frame and trust that he/she is safe to fully grasp all the wall has to offer. The skills assessed on the wall are similar to the ones assessed and utilized in other parts of our course; communication, problem solving, teamwork, and trust building can be clearly observed when climbing and belay on the wall.
