overview

Our most popular entry level trip, this is the perfect day of climbing for the majority of people. This day isn’t any harder than a 4-hour trip, but the extra 2 hours allow us the time to hike a little further and get a few more climbs in—usually enough to make sure everyone leaves tired. The 4-hour trip is so quick that we need to go to places with a very short hike in.

We have designed these outings to minimize contact and on all but the most crowded weekend days we can very effectively socially distance from other groups. If you have climbed in a gym before and are ready to make the move to climbing outdoors, this might be the perfect day, one you will never forget. We can easily add as much instruction as you can handle to fast-forward your climbing education. Please contact us if you have any questions.

customer reviews

"I took my 8-year old son on the 4 hour climbing package. He absolutely loved it! Our guide, Kyle, was great with him and made the day very fun! Probably not for the faint at heart, but my adventure junkie kid had a blast, probably did 9 climbs during our session. Well worth the time and money!" - blondelender from Valparaiso, Indiana

"My outing with Eric up the Sharkstooth was fun and exciting. Spending 10 hours with someone you don't know can go either of two ways. Eric made those ten hours great. It felt like I was climbing with one of my friends.

I am very grateful for Vanessa. I have tried many times to get my 4 year old daughter to climb on rock unsuccessfully. Vanessa showed great patience with her, climbing up beside her and allowing her to go at her own pace. My daughter could not stop talking about how Vanessa climbed beside her and then lowered down with her. It was wonderful seeing my daughter climb with confidence and without hesitation because of Vanessa. She can't wait to get her own helmet and get out on the rock. My wife also had a great first time on the rock. Family days at the crag will now be a regular event.

Thanks again for everything. It was more than I could have asked for. We will definitely be talking with KMAC the next time we are out in Estes Park." - Greg-and-Sarah from Littleton, New Hmapshire

"Went on a rock climbing lesson with our group and can't begin to say how much fun we all had. Office staff and guide all treated us great. Perfect weather and great views didn't hurt!! Would recommend to anyone." - plz2meatu from Florida
