CRUX LGBTQ Climbing - 2nd & 4th Fridays @Central Rock Gym

Hey Climber!

Please join us for our monthly CRUX event at Central Rock Gym!  CRUX will meet at CRG to boulder together and then those who are interested can grab food and beverages nearby. If it's your first time climbing or bouldering, don't worry! We'll help you climb your first walls! CRG staff will give you a little primer on bouldering and there are routes set for all levels! It'll be great! If you're not new to climbing, don't worry! There are a bunch of high overhung routes to delight you as well as all levels down to VB on slab.

Check in with the front desk at CRG. You will need to fill out a waiver first. You can save yourself some time in advance by filling out the gym waiver online before arrival: https://centralrockgym.com/manhattan/gyms-waiver/

A ramp to the entrance is located along West End Ave (11th Ave). An elevator on the ground level leads to the climbing area.

There is a single-use restroom on the ground floor near the front desk. Single occupancy, non-gendered changing rooms are on the lower level. There is a restroom without urinals and another with urinals. Lockers with built-in, self-coding locks are in an open space. And there are cubbyholes in the seating area.
