ParaCliffhangers

Hey Troy, NY!! 🙋‍♀️ Are you passionate about helping others achieve their climbing goals? 🧗 We’re looking for YOU! Shoot us an email, we’d love to have you in our adaptive climbing community!

Katy, TX: We showed UP. 🤘🧗Over 50 ParaCliffHangers traveled from across the country to compete at the 2026 USA Climbing Para Climbing National Championships at Momentum Climbing Texas earlier this year, and we couldn’t be prouder of every single one of them. Climbing wasn’t the only highlight: Sporting our new shirts and getting our crew together for a team dinner was a reminder of what PCH is really about: community, connection, and the people who make this sport worth showing up for. 🍽️❤️

With on the horizon, the future of paraclimbing has never looked brighter, and we’re so grateful to be a part of it. See you on the wall. 🌟

Throwback to Owl Night West earlier this year! To the +300 of you who came out to party, all the community orgs who ran crate stacking way past everyone’s bedtime, to the army of volunteers, donors, and promoters: Thank you for helping us raise money to expand climbing to the disability community. 💜 , we couldn’t have done it without you; thank you for being such amazing hosts and always showing us the utmost support. 🫶It’s greatly appreciated.

Owl Night was a massive hit and we’re already thinking about next year! If this night meant something to you, we’d love your help keeping this work going. Even $10/month helps a climber get to a session, head to the link in our bio to learn how to contribute. 🧗And right now, we’re not slowing down. We’re launching 3 new chapters, planning our biggest ever New York outdoor trip, and we just supported America’s largest competitive paraclimbing team on the road to the Salt Lake City World Cup. 🏆Thanks again for showing up, climbing, volunteering, donating, cheering people on, eating waffles, all of it, it means more to us than you know.

Time to meet us outside! 🗻We will be partnering with the talented guides at Rise Outside on June 6th for a day of climbing on some classic Shawangunks routes, kicking off the summer with some great views and beautiful rock. It’s a day of sends, friendship, and fun!☀️

We have limited spots, and seats will be provided on a first come, first serve basis, so don’t miss out on this chance to join us! Head to this link for more details and to save your spot! 🥾 https://bit.ly/GUNKS2026
