Lights Out Halloween Climbing

It's Cliffs of Id's world-famous *Lights Out Climbing* for Halloween!

It will be DARK, it will be FUN, it will be SPOOKY. Feel free to dress up

***Don't forget to bring a headlamp or be prepared to purchase one from the front desk as supplies last, they'll usually $20-$30*\

Meet us down in the ropes area by the benches, we'll climb until they close at 9:30 (extended holiday hours)

🔥 For Lead and Top Rope 🔥

We'll give each other belays, comradery, and encouragement. Join us! Feel free to trickle in late or leave early if needed, just give me a heads’ up if you’re new so we can keep an eye out for you!

You must be able to pass the gym’s top rope belay or lead test (free)/have a Touchstone belay card before belaying on top rope or lead climbing, respectively.

This is a friendly, supportive event that is welcoming to climbers of all skill and experience levels. Whether this is your first time climbing or your 10,000th, you are welcome. We are a safe environment for all!

GYM LOCATION Cliffs of Id
2537 South Fairfax Avenue, Culver City, CA 90232
(424) 543-3820

PARKING** Limited free parking is available in front of the gym in its own lot but fills up quickly. A bigger lot (also free) is directly across the street on Fairfax, and there is metered and free street parking around the block.

Please be aware if tandem parking, you will have to sign a log and be ready to move your car on notice.

I recommend entering the gym lot from Fairfax, if there’s no parking go through it and turn right on Hines to look for street parking.

Continue on and turn right on Washington. Still no luck? Go through the intersection and turn right onto Genesse to access the big lot, then walk to cross the street to the gym at Adams.

Once you get checked in, turn left and go down the stairs. Look for the Meetup Figure 8 Fridays group flag!

Hope this helps and I’m looking forward to climbing with you!
