Family Rock Transition Course

On the Rocks is excited to now offer the "Family Rock Transition Course". This course is geared towards parents and families that are interested in climbing outdoors but just don't have the skills necessary to set up their own climbs.

This is a two day course and on day 1 the parent/parents can choose from either "Anchor Building & Rappelling" or "Sport Lead Climbing" and learn how to safely set up your own climbs and rappel. On day 2, the entire family comes out for a full day of technique lessons, climbing safety lessons, belaying, and plenty of rock climbing on the routes that you, the parent/gaurdian, set up on your own. We'll finish things off with beautiful views and a fun rappel that you can safely set up and coach. Gain the freedom to climb on your own with your family!
 
Rock climbing is an amazing way to enjoy the outdoors, spend time with eachother, build teamwork and confidence and ofcourse, stay active and healthy. Create everlasting rock climbing memories for you and your family!
