      No, bouldering is pretty cheap! Like shoes, chalk, and a $200 mat and you’re good to go!

      It’s all the caribiners ropes, nuts, slings, and cams that add up for outdoor top rope

        Ah my brain seemed to have skipped the second half of that sentence mentioning top rope. Yeah, that’s still a shocker for me though. A rope is a few hundred and I didn’t realize nuts and slings were used

          Yep for setting up the achor. You can probably get away with less, especially if there are a lot a trees near the top where tou set the anchor. But it all adds up eventually $30 here, $100 here…
