Sign up in advance to make sure you get a shot at the King Kong prize.
Pay your fee on-site.
You may sign up to climb on-site provided vacant slots are available -- or -- in case of climber no show, step up and climb. (See below.)
You must be checked in and ready to climb 15 minutes before your scheduled time or your slot will be given to someone else.
You may bring your own belayer or use ours (belaying rack provided).
Any climbing system may compete.
Will climb rain or shine – but not thunder or lightening (will reschedule climbs if able).

Contact Patty Springer -- pitpatty@att.net -- to sign up and for more information.



*The spirit of this event is to give everyone who can the opportunity to earn a Kong Climb T-shirt by completing their 1,000 foot climb. In that spirit, the organizers may allow some climbers to continue past the 30 minute mark if it appears that they will complete the 1,000 feet (with consideration of time needed to reset so that the next climber is not delayed in starting).
Be safe,
