Red Rock Climbing Equipment List

Our gear and equipment is essential in the mountains. We have partnered with Black Diamond to help get us to the top. Get in touch for a special discount code for 20% off BD gear or any other gear questions.


We can provide any personal climbing gear (helmet, harness, climbing shoes, belay devices, PAS, etc.) at no additional cost, though if you have your own, you are encouraged to bring it (especially climbing shoes). We will supply all ropes & protection (cams, quickdraws, slings, etc.).

Considerations

Warm Weather – (April - October) The sun is intense and hydration is vital!  Hydrate the night before your adventure.  Consider freezing your water bottles or putting ice in them.  Light colored  and loose fitting clothes will help keep you cool.

Cold Weather – (November - March) Bring gloves and a warm hat that will fit under your helmet. Bring extra layers like long underwear and a heavier winter jacket to keep warm when the sun ducks behind clouds of dips below the canyon walls.
