Two weeks ago, our setters took the week off from setting to get some inspiration in the great outdoors! Arnold and .buckner.39 clipped bolts in the Red while met up with friends to boulder in Southern Illinois. They all had great weather and not a single complaint! With Festivus happening next weekend (May 16), we will be holding off on setting today to do preparations for our event. The gym will be almost entirely turned over afterwards, so come send your projects now before they’re gone forever!

As per every Festivus, to celebrate Higher Ground taking another lap around the sun, all proceeds will be donated to a local nonprofit! So come climb some sick new boulders and help support a good local cause! Registration link in bio

A look back to the days when every route didn’t have matching colored holds like we are accustomed to seeing now and tape was used to mark where the route went! Former youth coach .hamms getting after it back in 2014!
