A MESSAGE FROM OUR LOCAL ATHLETE TEAM
We’ve teamed up with hundreds of gyms to make it easier for you to spend your day on the wall. Commit to climb and join us (and other members of the climbing community) at an event near you.
While some gyms may not be able to host physical events due to current Public Health Orders, they will still be sharing stories online to celebrate Global Climbing Day, and giving you the opportunity to win some gear from The North Face. Find a participating gym in the list below.
