High Ropes Course

High ropes courses focus on the individuals within the group in the context of a common experience to be overcome by all. The high ropes course provides further opportunities for teamwork with an added emphasis on individual challenge while still maintaining the cohesiveness of the team. The high elements provide opportunities for participants to expand their comfort zones and to overcome fears that can block personal and group development. Individuals learn to trust and depend on their coworkers for support. This will ensure the group grows together as a unit, not individually. Activities provide an opportunity for participants to be over 30ft off the ground with harnesses and ropes used for safety. Elements can include: Climbing Wall, Leap Pole, High Wire Traverse, Initiative Wall. Half, full, and multi-day schedules.
