The fourth Annual “The Beast” - Youth Competition Series

Compete with your peers in the annual “The Beast” youth bouldering series!

Each event features 50 boulder problems ranging from novice to advanced. The Beast series includes three stand-alone competitions — enter one, two, or all three! Your top five climbs determine your score, with medals and prizes awarded to the top three finishers in every category at each event.
