New for the 2020 Ice Fest we are adding a FREE Demo Wall for the kids!
What better way to introduce children to the life sport of climbing! Join us at the free walk up climbing area where kids can try ice climbing in a safe and super fun environment! (Start them young and you will have a climbing partner for life!) Kids will get their gear OUT AT THE DEMO SITE!
*Event registration is required but gear demo is not
*Ages 8-14 years old
*Parent is required while child is climbing
*Hours 10am-3pm
*Location at the Curtain Area (look for the sign!)
Friday, Saturday, Sunday
ADULTS- you will also be able to try out the latest gear from our incredible sponsors! Depending on ice conditions our guides will pre set 12-15 ropes for climber to come out and test the gear and their skills. To check out demo gear you do have to pay the demo fee when you register for Ice Fest. To check out demo gear at headquarters, you do have to pay the demo fee when you register for Ice Fest.
You will also have the opportunity to learn from some of the world’s best climbers as they will be on-hand to provide tips and advice.
*If you have your own helmet and harness, bring them if you want to avoid having to waiting.
*Please do not set personal ropes up on the Curtains. If you are looking for a place to climb please ask one of our staff for the beta
*Please don’t go to the top of the climbs to take photos
*Be sure to grab a hot drink from YETI before you hit the shuttle to the demo!
