OVERVIEW

When you and your group come for the ropes course experience, you are likely coming with a goal in mind. This could be anything from having fun, team building, communication, trust, handling change, etc. Our goal is to provide you with the experience your group desires. To achieve this our facilitators take the group through a progressive experience, each activity building upon the previous activity. Typically this is broken up in three sections; Initiative games, low ropes activities, and high ropes activities. After each activity there will be time for the group to discuss and apply what they experienced. Each activity is further explained below:

Initiative Games

What is it?

Initiative games are problem solving and get to know you games that are done on the ground. 

Why is it included?

These games are fun and they help the group get comfortable working with one another. It helps our facilitators gauge the group to determine how to run the following activities. 

How does it work?

These games exercise the group's mind and body while building relationships between team members. 

Low Ropes Activities

These challenging activities will push you and your group, while staying close to the ground. Low Ropes Activities are an essential part of a full ropes course experience because it allows the group to build trust and confidence and work up the courage to participate in the high ropes activities. Often times the low ropes activities is where most of the group's growth occurs. Below are a few examples of activities we offer. 

Spider Web

Although this web is made of rope, trying to get your group through the web without touching it will be a challenge your group won't be forgetting any time soon. 

The Wall

This activity is 13 feet high and getting your group over this wall is sure to create an experience that your group will remember for years to come. 

Balancing Log

This giant log connected to a cable makes for a perfect game of balance. You and your group will see just what it takes to work as a team. 

Mohawk Walk

Remember playing on the couch cushions as a kid and the floor was lava? Balancing on cables and trying to get your whole team across will be harder than you think!

Artesian Beams

This puzzle requires you and your group to figure out how to get from one side to another with only three beams and a whole bunch of stumps. It's one that will have everyone stumped, unless you work together. 

Atomic Core

One tire. One Pole. Trying to get this tire on or off the pole without touching it will require creativity and some serious focus!

High Ropes Activities

High Ropes Course activities are anywhere from 12 to 40 feet in the air. With a facilitator, your group will get to experience the thrill of letting go on our giant swing, climbing on our 40 foot rock wall, or traversing our 400 foot zip line. These are just a few examples. Call to learn about our other high elements. 

The Zip Line

Your group will be sure to conquer their fears flying down our 400 ft zip line. 

Giant Swing

With the help of your group, you will be raised 35 ft in the air before letting go of any fears you or your group are holding on to. 

Climbing Wall

Climb to new heights on our 40 ft climbing wall. With top of the line equipment, this is a great way to challenge personal fears.
