North Star Camp for Boys

The Camp Program

Climbing

Please update your Flash Player to view content.
North Star's three climbing walls provide campers the perfect setting to learn and develop the skills to become top notch climbers. Our main 60 foot climbing tower has three faces, two obstacle faces and one rock face. Beginning campers will start on the obstacle face, learning the basics of climbing while also achieving success using the obstacle implements. Campers are taught climbing safety procedures, knot-tying skills, and how to care for the equipment.

As climbers progress, they use the rock face, which has a wide variety of routes for the wide variety of skill levels of our campers. North Star also has a smaller "challenge wall" which is used for more competitive climbing, as well as a bouldering wall, which allows campers to work one-on-one with our experienced climbing instructors.

We can't leave out the zip line, which is at the top of our 60 foot climbing tower. Open during organized free periods, campers are able to climb up the obstacle face and then zip down through the woods, before safely coming down.
