OK, you caught me…I’m addicted to crack.

You want to try? I have to warn you though, you are going to get hooked.

By far my favorite style of climbing is crack climbing. Maybe it just suits me well but there is just something incredibly enjoyable about cramming all your body parts in the absence of a hold to make upward progress.

Is it painful? I’d be lying if I said it was completely painless but I wouldn’t be lying if I said it becomes less painful the better your technique is; and that is why you are here.

Let this self-proclaimed crack-addict walk you through your first experience and get you well on your way to slamming those golds until your forearms feel like they are going to explode.

I recommend at least 3 days for this trip but you can add as many as you like once you realize you’re hooked. We will start with 2 days of technique and movement and then we will cap off the trip with an ultra-classic desert tower summit. If you ever wondered why all your friends are raving about climbing in the desert, now is your time to find out!

Spring, Fall, and Winter are the best seasons for Moab and Red Rocks.
