Thursday Yoga is back with a a new instructor!

Join Amara on Thursdays at 7pm for a vinyasa slow flow designed to complement your climbing routine.

Through a series of postures that link breath with movement, you’ll improve mobility, release tension and build mind-body awareness that carries beyond the mat. This class incorporates props and modifications to support bodies of all abilities. I completed my 200-hour yoga teacher training at Portland Yoga Collective.

Yoga is free for ask members and is included with a day pass at Salt Pump. We’ve got the mats and blocks, come join and try something new!

APRIL BREAK CAMP! 🧗‍♀️🎲

There is still a spot left in the weeklong Break Camp! 9a-3p for the week of April 20th. It's more than climbing, its a place for kids to enjoy, socialize, be creative...and climb!

SKILL SEMINARS 🪬🔑

It's that time to brush the rust off your outdoor skills! Rappelling, anchor building, anchor cleaning...there's plenty to learn! Bring your experience, bring your questions, and grow together. Go into this season feeling solid on your risk & rope management.

There are great climbs going up every week. Some
will be warm-ups, some can just be eeked out as an onsight, others will be projects. That's the way we want it...climbing for everyone. What in the recent
sets is your favorite?
