Bouldering Sessions on Jan 13th

Happy New Year everyone!

NAC is excited to announce the first bouldering event and friendly competition of 2025! Who doesn’t love a new personal goal to kick-start the new year? The event will take place over multiple days to help make it more accessible for everyone’s busy schedule.

Here’s a breakdown of what the event will look like:

January 7-11: Open Climb

  • Come in anytime during these 5 days to register and start climbing! 15 new bouldering routes will be specially made for these 5 days (5 beginner, 5 intermediate, and 5 advanced routes). After you register you will be given an evaluation card in which you will record which routes you’ve climbed, and how many attempts it took you to finish
  • By January 11th, return your evaluation card back to the NAC staff. Based on which climbs you completed and how many attempts they took, we will add up your 5 highest scoring routes. These final scores will determine who will be competing in the finals on the evening of January 13th. But of course, anyone is welcome to come and cheer on all of our finalists!

January 13th: Competition

  • The 12 top scoring participants will be invited to compete in the finals on the evening of January 13th! Finalists will be split into intermediate and advanced categories.
  • New routes will be set for the finals, and participants are encouraged to work together and exchange strategies
  • Prizes will be given to the top participants

Registration for this event will be 1,000yen.

Happy climbing!

Happy New Year

Happy New Year. 2025 has finally begun. Today in Kutchan, the sun briefly appeared in the morning, and then the snow that is typical of Kutchan started falling. We have already started skiing. This year marks the 30th anniversary of NAC, and we would like to express our gratitude and have a fun adventure with everyone. Thank you for your continued support this year.
