WHAT IS MOON ROCK?

Moon Rock is an epic, daylong event and bouldering competition hosted by G1 Climbing + Fitness that brings in Olympian-level, professional, and Team USA Climbing athletes. It also serves the direct community via citizens’ competition categories. It’s arguably the biggest non-sanctioned bouldering event in the Front Range!

The citizen categories allow the average climber (and gym goer) the opportunity to compete to win or podium in beginner, intermediate, and advanced level categories. The V1 climber has as much of a chance at winning as the V12 climber! Spectators are welcome to come and win raffles and engage with industry leaders such as Black Diamond, Trango, Scarpa, and Cotopaxi, as well as small, local businesses. The evening event draws in our highest spectator numbers and includes a roaring crowd cheering on elite athletes.

Don’t forget to support the local food scene by stopping by the 4 Noses table for beer and grab something from the food trucks during Moon Rock too!
