About

An introduction to climbing for individuals and groups wanting to experience outdoor climbing.

Based on your experience and group make up, we will select a climbing venue. Because of KMAC’s long history in the area, we have more permits for local climbing areas than anyone else. We can choose from many sites that are all minutes away from town, so you’ll be able to gear up, cover the basics, and begin climbing and rappelling right away!

Perfect for individuals, small children, and groups. The Taste of Climbing can be scheduled anytime during the day for your convenience. When thinking about what time you would like to start, keep in mind around 95% of mornings have good weather here and about 50% of afternoons do. Please contact us if you have any questions. For groups larger than 6 we ask that you give us a call so we can accommodate you.

What to Bring

 

• Synthetic Activewear Top (Our guides like lightweight long sleeve shirts for sun protection while on the cliff. Synthetic t-shirts are fine as well.)

• Synthetic Pants/Shorts (For all climbing activities we do recommend pants instead of shorts to help protect legs from abrasions against rocks while climbing, to provide a level of warmth in case of storms and to protect from the sun.)

• Warm Fleece or Light Puffy Layer 

• Waterproof Rain Layer

• Light Trail Shoes or Hiking Boots (Approach shoes are great too)

• Sun Hat/Ball Cap

• Light Leather Gloves  (optional but can be nice for belaying)

• Sunglasses

• Food for 3-7 hours of physical activity

• 1.5 - 2 liters of water 

• Personal Care Kit (Sunscreen, SPF lip balm, small personal first aid kit, any medications you may need)

• 20 - 35L Backpack - Pack needs to be able to fit all your personal gear inside of it, including water bottles. Any gear on the outside of a pack creates a potential falling object hazard that guides will not allow. 

• If you enjoy your trip, a gratuity for your guide! (Venmo/Cash is most popular)

 

Technical Gear: All technical safety gear is included as a rental in your trip with KMAC Guides. If you have your own safety gear and would like to bring it that is fine, please refer to the list below for required safety gear. Please bring personal safety gear into the office with you when you start your trip so the guide can check it. 

• Climbing Harness (Less than 10 years old in clean, working condition. No ultra-light glacier or ski harnesses please)

• Climbing Helmet (UIAA approved, no cracks or signs of major damage) 

• Rock Climbing Shoes

• Chalk Bag
