Climbing Near Kansas City, Missouri

A chossy outcropping along Gillham Road that has lots of scrambling and a few easy boulder problems. Nice for kids to get their first outdoor sends. The landing is groomed turf grass so pretty safe especially with a pad or two. Just a nice spot near a a couple of playgrounds along a bike path.   It along Gillham Road just to the south of the accessible playground just north of 25th St. Bonus points if you bike there on the Gillham Cycletrack.

38,000KG Granite Boulder on the Berkley Riverfront. Padded ground but be sure to bring a crashpad. Easy parking on the street right off of Riverfront Drive.

Somewhat good quality rock. Fun problems ranging from v0 to v2. Not actually a boulder but the problems are certainly "bouldery." Go down the road a little more towards the pond. On some problems it is not a good idea to top out. Once you reach the top you may traverse and down climb on easier terrain. On others however it is possible to top out. Once you do so go straight through the woods until you're back on the green of the frisbee golf course. Head left (south) until it loops around down hill and takes you back to below the cliff face.
