Bishop Craggin’ Classic 10/18/2024-10/20/2024

We will be at the Bishop Craggin’ Classic! Join us on the evenings of October 18th and 19th at our booth for games and prizes, or at the Climb United Bouldering Meet-up on Saturday, hosted by Climb Out.

About the festival:
The Craggin’s are more than just a climbing festival. They are a critical gathering point for climbers across the country—a magical series of weekends full of sharing beta with old and new friends, growing in our climbing skills, giving back to our crags and the LCOs that steward them, and finding belonging in our shared love of climbing and adventure.

Of course each Craggin’ has festival energy, but each event is also filled with a lot of heart and soul—stewardship projects, all levels of educational clinics, opportunities to raise funds for the American Alpine Club and local climbing organizations, Climb United meet-ups, family friendly clinics, adaptive clinics, and more. We’ll also have films, presentations from pro athletes, local food, craft beer, and many local artisans sharing their art!

Whether it will be your first outdoor climbing experience, or your 50th day out this year, the rock is calling your name. Grab your climbing shoes and join us for the biggest climbing festival series in the country.

Join the Craggin’ Classic community—you belong here!

About the Climb United Bouldering Meet-up:
Grab your climbing shoes and meet some of your fellow climbers during the Climb United Bouldering Meet-up! Join Climb Out for a FREE day of climbing and community in the Happys. To be mindful of individuals’ needs, we may subdivide into smaller groups the day of to best accommodate personal needs and obstacles while maintaining an appropriate group size. Please note that this is not a guided session, and no climbing instruction will be provided. Bring your own climbing gear if you have it!

During the meet-up, Sonya Wilson will host a discussion on ASL for the Outdoors and Climbing!

Do you wonder how best to communicate using non-verbal strategies when hiking, camping and climbing? Sonya Wilson will be at the meetup to help us explore the synergy of rock climbing and American Sign Language (ASL). Discover climbing skills and communication strategies for an inclusive outdoor experience that benefits everyone. Learn about valuable resources and knowledge about the Deaf Outdoor Ecosystem.
