My two boys aged 4 and 7 could not have been in more capable and child friendly hands. Clay understood the level (both physical and mental) of each of us and geared the session to suit and challenge us all. - Review from Google https://www.groundupclimbingguides.com/where-we-climb daily 0.75 2025-01-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6059044d78b38c45e4372bb8/1617472591490-7M7PTFW97X6Q3FAUQLEP/Ground%2BUp%2BClimbing%2BGuides%2Bselects_018%2B%25281%2529%2B%25281%2529.jpg Where We Climb - Clark Canyon This is our favorite sport climbing area that has something for everyone. Clark Canyon offers world class bolted sport climbing on a volcanic tuft. The views of the Sierra range from the top of the climbs is legendary. Routes range from 5.7 that most 8 year-olds can manage to, well, as hard as you want to go. The road to Clark Canyon is rugged, and a vehicle with a little clearance (a Subaru Outback or better) is required. Clark Canyon trips require a full day. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6059044d78b38c45e4372bb8/1617214149580-PP7KUBMBTYJLKOZ0J5LQ/20180819_110916+%281%29.jpg Where We Climb - Horseshoe Slabs and Sunshine Wall in the Mammoth Lakes Basin Nestled in the scenic Mammoth Lakes Basin, Horseshoe Slabs is our go-to spot for kids and families. This crag features a casual approach, tall pine trees to shade the area, and terrain that suits beginners as well as experienced climbers. It’s an ideal spot for almost anyone. Sunshine Wall is just up the hill from Horseshoe Slabs and offers longer, harder routes for slightly more experienced or adventurous climbers. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6059044d78b38c45e4372bb8/1617214507556-RUZ1KPAHNVBSV25GCEWF/67873563_710762259369459_161736004372267008_n.jpeg Where We Climb - Crystal Crag Crystal Crag is a prized climbing gem. For many clients, it’s the first taste of multi-pitch climbing. It’s an aggressive, long day filled with unbeatable views of the Mammoth Lakes Basin and beyond. We guarantee every time you look at Crystal Crag looming above the lakes, you’ll remember standing on top. Crystal Crag requires a full day. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6059044d78b38c45e4372bb8/1617215156295-K1JKGYA1QWV2IJ6LWEDH/128542939_1091264287985919_5945897303933197230_n.jpeg Where We Climb - Alabama Hills The Alabama Hills National Scenic Area is a stunning climbing area with amazing views of Mt. Whitney. The climbs are varied in difficulty, length, and style, so there’s something for everyone. https://www.groundupclimbingguides.com/home daily 1.0 2026-02-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6059044d78b38c45e4372bb8/1617473152986-TRG1RC125ONOL2K5DPHT/Copy%252Bof%252B20210319_131534%252B%2525281%252529%252B%2525281%252529.jpg Home - How It Works https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6059044d78b38c45e4372bb8/1617214507556-RUZ1KPAHNVBSV25GCEWF/67873563_710762259369459_161736004372267008_n.jpeg Home - Where We Climb https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6059044d78b38c45e4372bb8/daaf66ad-9ef6-433a-bcb8-1d38ee3186a2/Ground+Up+Climbing+Guides+selects_014.jpg Home - Programs & Camps https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6059044d78b38c45e4372bb8/46c17989-74fa-4a29-b578-9cdd70007c45/posterPic2.jpg Home - Craggin’ Days 2026 Lone Pine https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6059044d78b38c45e4372bb8/1617473391855-H9XLO32SEAVTX1WW6EZY/20210314_110510%2B%25281%2529.jpg Home - “It was the highlight of our trip to Mammoth Lakes. Everyone felt challenged, but also safe and supported. The guides were so encouraging and knowledgeable. They spent a lot of time with us and we never felt rushed. We were all beginners, but were able to make it up to the top of every climb. It was so fun, and the views were incredible!
