How old do I Have to be to Climb ?
With proper instruction, climbers of any age and ability are welcome at Rocks and Ropes. Children under 12 are required to climb with a responsible adult. Climbers under 18 years of age need to have the waiver signed by a parent/guardian prior to participating. If you have a group of children under 12 then we require a good adult to child ratio. We recommend 1 adult for every 2 children, we will accept 1 adult for every 3 children. If you are unable to have enough adults present then you may hire Rocks and Ropes staff for $30/person for up to 2 hours to meet the requirement. If you have enough adults then we will be happy to train them to tend to the children. (see faq's).
