Geocache Description:


Stealth is required. RIT is an open campus and visitors are able to park in any designated visitor space or general parking space not restricted by signs for other users. For more details on parking, see here.

RIT Red Barn is open to the public, but all non-RIT visitors must be 18 or older.

The Red Barn is an authentic 100-year-old "Wells" style dairy barn, converted to be home to one of the top collegiate indoor rock climbing facilities in the country. RBC is a bouldering-only gym, where climbs are shorter and falls are protected with padding. Climbing routes are set and maintained to accommodate all abilities and skill levels, from beginner to expert. 

The Red Barn's 5,000 square feet (460 square meters) of climbing surface is spread across a toprope wall and a top-out boulder on the first floor, and three bouldering caves in the basement. The walls' holds are regularly rearranged to create new problems. Though the Red Barn is part of the Rochester Institute of Technology Center for Intercollegiate Athletics and Recreation department, its climbing facilities are open to the public on a limited basis.
