EXISTING CLIMBERS
All climbers MUST check in with Frontier Climbing Company or the Visitor Center to sign the park waiver, get a wristband, and grab a guidebook with information on where climbing is allowed in the park. We're very fortunate to be able to rock climb here at Petit Jean State Park; let's make sure we do our part as the climbing community to maintain that access by following the rules for climbing in the park.
