Belaying and facilitating indoor and outdoor climbing wall sessions

Leading low ropes team-building activities and assisting with high ropes courses

Creating welcoming, confidence-building experiences for guests of all ages

Running the Adventure Activities desk—answering questions, registering guests, and sharing local knowledge

Handling cash and credit transactions for programs, rentals, and merchandise

Supporting smooth daily operations with setup, teardown, and teamwork

Every shift is different—and every guest leaves because of you feeling stronger, braver, and more connected.

CPR certification (or willingness to obtain during training)

Strong people skills and comfort working with all ages

Ability to work evenings, weekends, and holidays

Comfort working at heights and in outdoor environments

If you’re ready to turn your love of adventure into a job with purpose, we’d love to meet you.
Join YMCA of the Rockies and help guests discover what they’re capable of—one climb at a time.
