Pinnacle Rules

Pinnacle climbs are first come first served. A wait-list may be generated during busy times. The Pinnacle will be closed when the wait-time extends to 1 hour before store closing.

Children under the age of 10 must have their parent or responsible adult present in the Pinnacle area during their climb. Minimum height for climbing is 42 inches.

Unless climbing, please remain on the paved pathway. Please remain quiet in this area so belayers and climbers can communicate with each other. Cameras are permitted.

Only REI-certified employees are permitted to belay, or to adjust ropes, belay device anchors, hand/footholds, and climbing routes.

REI supplies chalk, bags, shoes and harnesses for all climbers. Personal equipment may be used only with the approval of REI-certified staff.

REI is not responsible for lost or stolen items.

All climbers, observers and other guests must act responsibly. Parent or responsible adults must monitor their children in the Pinnacle area.
