Bouldering Barn
Come visit the new WOC Bouldering Barn located on Walden St. and Hoxsey. Shoes and chalk are provided but bring a water bottle! There is room for 10 climbers and 1 IM in the space. Come climb!
Instructor-Monitor (IM) Program
“IMs” are Williams students who are certified to open the Bouldering Barn during specified times. They undergo training in the fall to ensure the safety of climbers. Their voluntary position consists of teaching newcomers climbing technique, keeping records of the wall, and above all, maintaining a safe climbing environment.
Williams Climbing Club (WCC)
The Williams Climbing Club was established in 2016 as a student organization dedicated to rock climbing. Membership is open to anyone in the Williams community with an interest in climbing, and those who wish to actively train can join our competition team, which competes in the USAC Collegiate Series in the Northeast Region as well as in local competitions. In addition to holding team practices and going to comps, the WCC also hosts excursions, social events, and advocates for funding and facility access for climbers at Williams College.
