Queer Crush Climbing is about creating safe and inclusive spaces for those who are diverse in their gender, romantic, and sexual orientations. We empower Queer, Trans, Black, Indigenous, and People of Color of all abilities to seek healing, health, community, and connection with the land through the art and sport of climbing.

QUEER CRUSH CLIMBING

COMMUNITY. HEALTH. HEALING.

A 501(c)3 led by queer rock climbers.

'I can bring enthusiasm and be that queer hollering my excitement for each individual, and they can be their authentic queer selves around me! If I can help folks feel safe, that means the world to me.'
