South Mountain YMCA

Outdoor Education Programs
Climbing Tower (1 - 2 hours)
Participants develop self-confidence through an activity involving perceived risk.  Participants are encouraged to challenge themselves through their own efforts with the support of their teammates.  Trained and qualified staff members lead each participant individually through the steps necessary to ensure safety and provide support.  No “auto-belay” devices are used, all participants are on a top-rope, live belay.
