Awesome features:
  • Trail difficulty rating system (easy, moderate, strenuous, ass kicker, and soul crushing)
  • Exposure points rating system (caution, broken bones, major damage, rest-in-peace)
  • Orientation photos (Turn here; This is what the wall looks like from the ground)
  • At-a-glance crag summaries to see if a wall will work for you (# of climbs, distribution of grades, types of climbs)
  • Overview + super detailed maps
Detailed rock climbing approach & walk-off maps so you can have fun climbing instead of being lost. Climb-On Maps is your trusted partner to:
  • Show you the quickest, easiest way to get to a climbing wall;
  • Give you a heads-up about approach difficulty & exposure (Is the approach or walk-off scarier than the the climb?);
  • Show you how to get from one wall to another for easy crag-hopping;
  • Help you plan your climbing day with at-a-glance Crag Summaries.

The Climb-On Maps Story

Rick and Stefani are avid rock climbers who love to travel, explore, and climb. We got incredibly frustrated when our precious weekend or climbing vacation time was consumed by attempting to find climbs, rather than climbing. We also didn't appreciate it when the walk-off for a climb resulted in an epic or felt more dangerous than the climb itself.

After repeatedly facing these experiences, and hearing similar frustrations from other climbers, we decided to do something about it - make detailed maps of the approaches and walk-offs of some of the U.S.'s most popular (and often confusing) climbing areas (Red Rock Canyon, NV, Joshua Tree, CA, and Smith Rock, OR).

Making maps was the perfect marriage of Rick and Stefani's passion for rock climbing (and, as a married couple, each other) and Rick's 20 years of a GIS (Geographic Information System) professional.

We hope you will find this resource useful and that it will help you "Get there faster" so you can "climb-on!"
