Crack climbing at Enchanted Rock is truly a unique and challenging experience. It’s one we believe all recreational climbers who want to expand their skills have the ability to learn.
Join your fellow Texas Lady Crushers on the pink granite at Enchanted Rock State Natural Area where you will learn how to hand jam, fist stack, foot jam and crack climb in a single pitch environment. Taught by Outpost Wilderness Adventure, we will begin with a brief ground school followed by real-time crack climbing on top-rope.
While you do not need a partner in order to attend this course, there are prerequisites required since this is not a beginner’s clinic.
*Please note that at least one of your climbing guides will be a cis-male.
