Climbing with Purpose: Rock-About’s Commitment to Education

Aside from climbing, Rock-About is also passionate about educating climbers about the physical and cultural geography of the places we climb. We believe that by imparting this knowledge, climbers can have a better understanding and appreciation of the environment they’re in. This also helps promote responsible climbing and a deeper respect for nature.


In line with our love for the environment, Rock-About advocates for a Leave No Trace ethic. This means that we encourage climbers to take responsibility for their waste and ensure that they leave the park as they found it. We believe that by following this philosophy, climbers can help conserve the park’s natural resources, reduce their environmental impact, and ensure that the area remains beautiful for future generations to enjoy.


Overall, Rock-About’s programs and philosophy reflect our commitment to providing a safe and responsible climbing experience while also promoting environmental awareness and appreciation for the natural world.
