Event Details
Every Monday night is a CRUX night at The Cliffs!
This event is geared towards climbers who are belay certified and for intermediate/advanced climbers. It is arranged more like a casual meetup, rather than the more structured New Climber Night events.
Venue: The Cliffs LIC
You will need to fill out the gym's participant agreement for your first visit. Do so ahead of time here: https://lic.thecliffsclimbing.com/reopening. All COVID procedures are outlined there.
Accessibility
The main climbing area is on the ground floor. The second level bouldering and workout areas have stairs.
Changing Rooms & Lockers
There are gendered lockerrooms with restrooms. You are welcome to use the lockerroom of your preference. Bring your own lock for valuables or you can rent them from the front desk. Cubbyholes for stashing non-valuables are throughout the climbing areas. There is also a non-gendered changing room in the retail merchandising area.

Cost
$15 for a facility day pass (includes rental gear).
For existing CRUX members, show your CRUX membership card to The Cliffs staff to get the day pass discount.
If you're already a Cliffs member, just scan your Cliffs membership card or use a punch card. There are no additional costs to attend our event.
Climb Time
CRUX event hosts will be milling about the tall bistro table towards the center. You should see a large banner and LGBTQIA flags. Hosts will be wearing yellow or teal CRUX t-shirts, and wearing the rainbow-colored CRUX nametags on their harnesses.
Climbing from 7-9ish (ish) PM. Some members climb later and do workouts/stretches afterwards, so ask around if you're a nightowl!
* Food, drink, socializing after 9 PM – After climbing, a group usually heads to a local restaurant/bar for dinner and chit-chat. Hosts will spread the word on the post-climb spot, but if you don't hear just ask a fellow CRUXer or the event host.
We're going to have a ton of fun! See you at The Cliffs at LIC every Monday!
FAQs
Are there ID or minimum age requirements to enter the event?
No. However, evenings get crowded in the after-work peak and is not the best time for small children new to a dynamic event space.
I'm part of an organization that would like to bring a group. Can we all register?
Please contact info@climbcrux.org with info about your group before registering. This gives us an opportunity to ensure we can accommodate everyone.
