Educate

We believe climbing teaches confidence and problem-solving. Through free and subsidized programs, WyoClimbers is working to remove financial and technical barriers so kids in Fremont County can climb, grow, and connect with the land around them.

After school programming

Thanks to a grant from the LOR Foundation, 45 students participated in outdoor climbing at Sinks Canyon in 2023/2024. This program is designed to connect Lander youth with our public lands and foster a lifelong appreciation for climbing.
Local summer camps

We offer two 3-day introductory climbing camps at Elemental Performance + Fitness. Students enjoy two outdoor climbing days with Wind River Climbing Guides. Costs are subsidized for all 30 participants, making the experience accessible to everyone.
Jim Ratz Climb the Grand Memorial Scholarship

In partnership with Jackson Hole Mountain Guides, this 4-day, 3-night Grand Teton expedition welcomes students with no prior experience. Over the past 23 years, more than 50 Fremont County students have reached the summit through this life-changing program.
Tribal family climbing clinics

These free climbing clinics serve up to 15 Native families and youth, providing hands-on instruction with Wind River Climbing Guides and introducing participants to the joys of outdoor climbing, held during the International Climbers’ Festival.
