We are only one week away from the Southeast's biggest and baddest climber throw-down! 🎉

Although this is a 3-day climbing festival, the Saturday night festivities are certainly not to miss!

Saturday evening will feature games, free gear handouts, raffles, our unique vendor village, and our silent auctions featuring amazing top-end gear deals.

Come prepared for whatever! Endless pull-ups, sleeping-bag races (), human pyramids, a one-arm beer chug… who knows?!

Participation is free, but you must win to get a prize! 🥇

See you there. ☺️
