How does the Professional Climb Work?

​Book your ticket online for the date and time of your choosing, and you will be added to a pre-existing group that is already scheduled at that time, if there is availability.  If there is no availability we will let you know and ask you to reschedule to a different time and give you additional options. You must join another group that has been pre-scheduled or at time of our choosing so we can perform a climbing test on you.

​

Professional climbers get to climb along with the pre-scheduled group at your own pace or we might put you on a nearby tree. If you want to climb more than one tree, the guide will show you to the location of the next tree to climb when they are available.
