High Steppe Climbing Club is for youth ages 8 – 18 who have participated in Climb Academy and progressed to level 5.
This ongoing program gives participants the opportunity to develop their climbing skills, knowledge, and fitness with a group of peers under the guidance of a coach.
Let's Climb
High Steppe's Climbing Club is specifically designed for young climbers who have progressed through levels 1-4 in Climb Academy and are ready for more!
Climbing Club is a space for young climbers who are enthusiastic about improving their technique and are ready to begin training more dynamic movement and climbing tactics. The Climbing Club athlete will focus on perfecting advanced technical skills and is expected to enjoy challenges.
These young athletes will learn to train hard and work towards their goals. The club is non-competitive. Instruction is individualized, and personal successes are celebrated.
