Basecamp at Sticklebarn

Our one-of-a-kind Basecamp at the Sticklebarn will be in full flow throughout the weekend, providing a place for you to take in the transformative Climb Academy experience and connect with the community, world-class athletes, and professional guides.

Enjoy a wide range of free activities, visit the Arc'teryx Gear Library and other partner stands, and take part in athlete-led workshops. Head to the ReBIRD booth for gear repairs and tips on gear maintenance. And at the end of the day, grab a drink, share a story, watch inspiring films from Arc’teryx, and listen to live music.

Check back on April 30 for the full Base Camp program.
