First Timers

Your first time in to the gym you will need to complete a belay certification. This is all the safety instruction; it usually takes about 30 to 45 minutes and is a one-time charge of $15.00. It isn’t difficult to belay but remember it is all safety instruction so the class could take a little longer depending on how quickly you learn. We have to make sure you have complete understanding of all safety protocols and procedures. Everyone 14 or older must complete a belay certification. If you are under the age of 14 you will need someone who is belay certified to belay for you.

If you are a minor (under the age of 18) you will need to have a parent or guardian sign a waiver for you, which you can download here or pick up one at the Urban Krag.

After certification you are free to top rope and boulder as much as you wish. Top rope is where the rope is always anchored above you to protect you in the event of a fall. Bouldering refers to short climbs close to the ground usually consisting of hard dynamic movements.

The total charges for a first time visit will be:
