Arc'teryx Queer Ascent climbing event in Truckee

Arc'teryx has announced a new climbing event, Queer Ascent, taking place in Truckee from May 31 - June 1. Spearheaded by Jordan Cannon, Arc'teryx Athlete and respected figure in the climbing world, Queer Ascent aims to create a welcoming and inclusive space for all climbers, with a special focus on celebrating and amplifying the voices of the 2SLGBTQ+ climbing community.

Alongside the daytime climbing clinics led by world-class queer climbers and guides, the event offers a program packed with fun and inclusive events, including dance parties, film screenings, special guests, live music, and more! All with the intent of providing opportunities for attendees to connect with other members of the queer climbing community. There will even be a Studio 50-Forest-themed party open to allies and the greater Truckee community on June 1.

This event is taking place just before Pride Month, and a good time to showcase the importance of diversity and representation in climbing.
