Rock Climb Camp

Whether you already love climbing or want to immerse yourself in it for the first time, this is the camp for you! Come master the challenge of the rock in a safe and supportive environment. Campers will climb at Morse Hill and at a variety of outdoor sites in the surrounding area, learning basic rock and rope craft, rappelling and climbing techniques, belaying, and safety protocols. After each day’s climb, we will cool off by sliding down natural water slides or jumping into refreshing streams. On Thursday, campers will stay overnight at our Morse Hill campsite made complete with a spectacular view of the Wendell hills and a cozy campfire.
