Rock Climbing

The NSCD climbing program has something for everyone at every ability level. Our staff provides a peak therapeutic experience while passing along the skills instrumental to being a successful climber. Staff performs an on-site assessment that complements the participant information provided prior to arrival and designs a custom curriculum in one of our three learning tracks. No experience is necessary. All equipment and adaptations are provided. Participants must be independent and manage self-care or bring a care-giver to provide assistance.


Youth and Teen Climbing Camp

This four-day adventure is designed for teens looking to develop their climbing skills both indoors and outdoors. Kick things off indoors, where participants will learn the fundamentals of top rope climbing and bouldering in a controlled environment. From there, take it to the great outdoors in Clear Creek Canyon, where climbers will put their skills to the test on real rock faces! Each day will build on the last, with hands-on instruction in technique, belay skills, and route navigation—culminating in climbs at progressively more challenging venues. Whether you’re a beginner or have some experience, this camp is the perfect way to push your limits, gain confidence, and have an unforgettable adventure! Meet at Jefferson County Fairgrounds, transportation to and from the day’s venue provided. Venues vary across the Front Range depending on the activity.
