24 Aug 2025 07:30 at Centerville park and ride

Lets hit up Elizabeth Furnace-Talking Headwall!  It’s a smallish sport crag with a few good routes.  Hopefully it cools off a bit before this trip, but just down the road from the parking lot is a most excellent swimming hole to jump in after climbing.

It’s a little under an hour’s drive the Centerville park and ride, where we’ll rally up at 0730. We’ll climb until mid-afternoonish.

Since it’s not that big of an area we’ll limit the attendees to 7.

If you’ve never climbed outside…great! This is an easy intro to climbing outside.

Registration opens 2 Aug at 8 pm.

I’ll set up a whatsapp group once registration is full.

If you can’t make it the morning of the event, at least give the trip leader a courtesy call so that
no one is waiting for you in the parking lot.

Please cancel your registration if you are no longer able to attend so someone can have your
spot. If you no show once, you will get an email from the Chair. If you no show twice, you will
not be allowed to sign up for another event for 3 months. If you continue to no show, your
membership will be cancelled and refunded.

Please note that this is not a guided event and none of our trip leaders are professional guides.
You will be climbing on ropes set up by members of the club who are hobby climbers and not
professionals. Climbing is an inherently dangerous sport and you do so at your own risk. You
are responsible for yourself and your own safety at all times.

Please ensure you are logged in to the website BEFORE trying to sign up for an event.
