Echols Dorm: Brick Wall By Side Door
Rocky Top Gym
I’ve been itching to go bouldering this semester as I am in Stage One of a Ten Step Plan to get rid of my phobia of heights. Starting with a 13 ft. wall seems to be like a safe bet, so join me at Rocky Top this Friday!
Rocky Top’s website says you have to fill out this waver before climbing:
https://www.smartwaiver.com/w/58b495944f1ff/web/
and here is the website if you want to check out the gym:
https://rockytopclimbing.com/
The fee is $10 for students; bring your ID, and shoes are $3 however you can also utilize our lovely gear room and rent shoes for freeee!
Here’s the plan:
3:45- meet @ Echols + drive to Rocky Top Gym (a mere 10 mins away)
4ish-6ish- climb as long as we want, but probably no longer than 2 hours
6ish- head back to Grounds
**I’ve heard that the High Tor Gear Exchange, a new consignment gear store, was supposed to open in February and it’s right near Rocky Top so there might be a potential stop there.
** Drivers are needed however because we are staying in Cville you will not be reimbursed, so drive for the love of the climb 🙂
