Idyllwild Climbing Weekend Description
Idyllwild Climbing Weekend Flyer

Situated one mile above the valley floor below in the San Jacinto Mountains, Idyllwild is set among alpine forest, and legendary rocks.  It is the ideal location for beginners and experts alike with classic routes such as Spring Cleaning, Knocking on Heaven’s Door, Blanketty Blank, Godzilla’s Return, Bathroom Boulder and Mushroom Boulder. 

We meet Friday at the SRFC to issue camping and climbing gear. We will also practice some climbing and belaying skills on the Climbing Wall before departing for Idyllwild.  We climb all day Saturday afternoon and Sunday, dividing our time between bouldering and climbing with a variety of simple to more challenging routes.  We spend the night at a local campground close to multiple climbing areas.  Saturday night we have time to explore the mountain town of Idyllwild.

No experience is required, as instruction will be provided.
