The mountaineering club goes on weekly outings to local climbing gyms. Currently we communicate trips via the PUMC List-Serv, typically sending out an email a few days in advance asking who wants to join and getting the logistics in order as to how many cars and drivers we need, where we are going to meet, etc.

On Mondays we head to either the Rockville Climbing Gym or the Doylestown Rock Gym and sometimes even have a group go to each gym. For more information on the area climbing gyms, check out our Links page. Typically we leave around 6 or 7PM and get back between 10 and 11PM. It is student night at both these places so with student ID we get in at a discounted rate. If you don’t have any gear, no problem! Both places rent out shoes and harnesses.

Thursdays are student night at Elite, so similarly we head there for an awesome evening of bouldering. The logistics are basically the same, leaving around 6 or 7, have a hardcore night of bouldering, and then get back to Princeton around 11pm.

If any of this sounds like fun to you, join the list-serv and come along!
