Some dads teach you to throw a ball. Others teach you to read a route.

Either way, Father's Day at Vertical Adventrures is only $9 — shoes and gear included. Climb together, then toast to the man who raised you.

Because that's a story worth telling.

👉 See you on the wall.

Proof that age is just a number, here’s to Karl who is still crushing it on his 80th birthday! We sat down with Karl to ask him a few questions about his climbing journey.

Q: How did you first get into climbing?

A: Well I started out backpacking. And then, once you start getting into the mountains, it seemed like a natural outgrowth from that, and from there I got involved with The Ohio State Mountaineers as well.

Q:How long have you been a member of the gym?

A:Well, since the old gym opened. (1994)

Q:What keeps you coming back?

A: I enjoy the mental aspect of it, and staying fit. Equal with that is the people, the friendships and the community.

Q: What is one piece of advice you’d give to younger folks or newer climbers?

A: Balance. Don’t put everything in one basket. You know the other day, my wife and I went down to hocking hills to see the wild orchids that are always blooming on my birthday, and we’ve been doing that for 25 years. And listen to your body. When you need rest take a rest, when you’re feeling good go hard.

Every route on this wall started with someone standing in front of blank holds asking: what's going to challenge you? What's going to surprise you? What's going to make you come back?

Our team sets, coaches, checks, resets — not because it's a job, but because they've felt what it's like to work a problem and finally send it.

That feeling you get on the wall? It was built for you.

Come climb what they made.

Watching our youth athletes grow is one of the best parts of Vertical Adventures. 💥

The focus. The grit. The look on their face when a hard move finally clicks. These kids aren't just learning to climb — they're learning to solve problems and believe in themselves.

School's out. Your kid's next adventure starts here.

Youth programs. Family memberships. Real fun that builds real grit.

Now here is another member, or should we say members, who deserve a huge shout out! The Pargeon family has been part of 5.life community for well over a decade, and we have enjoyed every moment they've been in the gyms!

You can usually run into them during the week at all three of our locations in Columbus, and you can bet that they'll be crushing it! They embody everything it means to be a climbing family and they've contributed so much to the community over the years!
