Release of Liability

(aka Waiver)

We require all of our members, guests, and even non-climbing observers to review and sign our release of liability. One release covers both ÜG Crags! Save time on your next visit by filling out our online release now.

To complete the release, select to SEND RELEASE OF LIABILITY TO your HOME CRAG or for new guests to the crag you are planning to visit.

Participants under the age of 18 must have a release filled out by their parents or court-appointed legal guardians only. No grandparents, siblings, other family members, friends, etc may complete a child’s waiver. No Exceptions.

Übergrippen is dedicated to making everyone’s visits to our crags the best possible. Before you do anything within our facility (whether it is climbing, a fitness/yoga class, a party/event, or even just hanging out at the facility watching others climb), it is really important that you are aware of the dangers associated with the activities offered at our crag. Even those not climbing need to be aware of the risks within the facility including potential falling objects that may create a hazard to you.

Every climbing gym/facility/guide/coach will remind you that climbing is dangerous. Climbing requires the active involvement of both the climber and the belayer, which relies on the need for personal responsibility from both parties. In order to help enforce this, we require every climbing participant to sign a liability release so they understand the risks and their own involvement while at our facility.

We have set rules and provide belay tests to help us evaluate and minimize the potential for errors and mistakes caused by a climber or belayer, but it’s each individuals responsibility to be attentive and appreciate the responsibilities we all have for our own safety.

Please call the front desk or send an email to your closest facility if you have any questions about the above stated requirements or about our Youth Policy.
