Climb L8 exists to remove systemic and financial barriers to entry into rock climbing and facilitate a safer space in the rock climbing gym for Black, Indigenous, people of color, LGBTQIA+, adaptive, first time climbers, and those without financial means. The goal of Climb L8 is to work to break down barriers in climbing and bring people together by building community, empowe­ring and amplifying underrepresented voices, and making space to learn together.
