Bellingham Branch

about us

The Bellingham Branch is tucked alongside the upper craggy expanse of the North Cascades. We enjoy easy access to the peaks that drain into the Nooksack and Skagit River basins. Our branch is a small and close-knit community offering climbing courses, hiking trips, and backcountry adventures in a diverse, inclusive and supportive environment. As a smaller branch, we focus on providing robust and comprehensive climbing courses, emphasizing individualized attention, building close connections, and providing increased instructor availability and accessibility.
