Boulders
With the rising popularity of climbing, we've created
pre-casted and custom-built indoor and outdoor boulders that
include natural routes and set routes with handholds. Routes
vary in difficulty to offer opportunities for people of all ages
and abilities. We've integrated accessible routes for adaptive
climbers and climbers with disabilities, expanding this recreational
opportunity to all in this rapidly growing sport.
From the youngest scramblers to elite rock climbers, outdoor
boulders in parks and playgrounds match the needs of your
community. The boulders provide an opportunity for parents
and children to share a common activity and time together.
Manufactured in Bend, Oregon, by an expert team, we take
pride in delivering complete solutions to our customers.
