Auto Belay The auto-belay at The Rock gives you the opportunity to climb during non-rope hours or to climb as much as you want during roped hours. This auto-belay uses centripetal force to lower you safely to the ground once you reach the top. All routes that are green tagged can be climbed on the auto-belay. You must get certified by a ROCK staff in order to climb during non-roped hours.

Auto-belay hours are from 11:00am until the SRC closes every day.

CHALLENGE COURSE

Through carefully designed and led activities, individuals and teams explore communication, group dynamics, confidence, decision-making, team spirit, trust, cooperation, motivation, creativity, conflict resolution, diversity and feedback. We accomplish this by creating a physically and emotionally safe environment in which individuals and teams are free to step outside of their comfort zone and take a risk. Another key element to our program is fun! We believe the team that plays together stays together, and people are much more willing to learn when fun is involved.
