Here’s our list of guidelines for you to be an upstanding outdoor climber.
Climbing is growing in popularity because climbing gyms are doing an amazing job at introducing people to the sport every day.
With this comes new climbers who may only understand the etiquette inside a climbing gym, but when they venture outdoors there will be some differences.
If you’re a new climber who primarily climbs indoors, check out our blog post that covers these 6 rules of outdoor climbing etiquette:
Leave no trace
Keep the noise reasonable
Stay organized (avoid cluttering)
Brush off excess chalk and tick marks
Respect the local ethics
Follow all official rules and regulations
Following these rules of etiquette creates a great environment for all climbers involved and preserves the nature that we love.
Rock climbing is everywhere these days. From the Dawn Wall to your Instagram feed to the new gym going up in town, climbing is no longer the fringe sport it once was.
