If you are over 18 years old, you must have a valid form of identification in order to climb.
Parents must come to the Dyno-Rock Climbing gym and sign a waiver form for climbers/belayers under 18 years of age.
If parents do not come to the gym with their child, the waiver form must be notarized or you must have a legible photo copy of the driver’s license of the parent or legal guardian who signed the waiver. The signatures/names MUST match.
All waiver forms must be sign by the minor participant’s parent or a legal guardian
I’ve never climbed before. Does Dyno-Rock have anything for beginners?
Most definitely…we have over 16,000 square feet of climbing surface, built for every level of ability.
Are there age requirements to climb at Dyno-Rock?
Yes and No, Dyno-Rock has climbing for all ages of climbers, but we require that all belayers (the person who holds the rope to keep the climber safe) be at least 14. Also, participants under the age of 18 must have a parent sign one of our waiver forms before climbing. You can view and print a waiver here.
What if I don’t own any climbing equipment?
Not a problem, we have everything you need available for rent, including shoes, chalk bags, harnesses, and carabineers.
Will there be staff members on hand to belay if I come in by myself?
Not usually. We have a large bouldering area for customers who come in by themselves. Also, it usually is not too hard to find other people in the gym to climb with. With a 48 hour notice, we can offer a belayer ($10 per hr per belayer).
What types of payment do you accept at Dyno-Rock?
We accept cash, Visa, Mastercard and debit. Please note that we only accept credit, debit, or organization checks for groups. Sorry, no cash.
If we come for the day can we leave to eat and come back?
Sure, Dyno-Rock’s entrances are based on a one day climbing pass; just let the staff know on your way out that you plan to come back that day.
Is there a place to eat inside if you bring picnic lunch?
Sure, we have several picnic tables inside the gym, feel free to bring refreshments and snacks. We only ask that you not bring glass into the gym.
Can I use my own belay device, rather than the gym’s Gri-Gris?
No, our insurance requires that you use our Gri-Gris to belay.
May I use my own rope for lead routes?
No, but we will be glad to provide you with one once you have been lead certified by DynoRock Staff.
