We are scheduling ISU student groups, ISU affiliated groups, and day time field trips for team climbs.
We are no longer able to accommodate afternoon, evening, or weekend community groups.
To inquire about scheduling a group, please fill out this Climbing Group Inquiry form.
Submitting this form is the first step in scheduling your group, but it is not a reservation. You will be contacted directly to discuss possible dates and times, after which you will receive a formal confirmation of your reservation.

About Group Climbing
We use a “team climb” for groups which allows those under age 16 to belay each other safely with a multi-person, multi-rope belay setup. It is a fun, rewarding experience for youth groups and beginners!
GROUP CLIMBS ARE NOT AVAILABLE DURING OPEN CLIMB.
We stress (and cannot stress enough) Wall staff are unable to accommodate groups during Open Climb hours. If a group drops in, they will be turned away.
What constitutes a “group”? Can I bring a couple kids to climb?
The Wall staff's ability to accommodate any climber depends on how busy the wall is and the experience-level of participants. For example, three kids and one adult would be allowed to use the Wall during Open Climb under the following conditions:
- The adult would need to be belay certified prior to arriving.
- Children must be at least 8 years old to climb or be in the climbing area.
- All children must be actively supervised and within arms’ reach as it is extremely unsafe for them to run amok.
- Everyone who enters the facility will need to be a member or purchase a day pass fee. We do not have guest passes or spectator rates.
- Minors under the age of 16 may not belay.
- Minor participants must have the Climbing Wall Assumption of Risk signed by their parent or legal guardian.
