Red Barn (RIT)

Red Barn (RIT)

The Red Barn is a recreational facility at the Rochester Institute of Technology. Located on the west end of the RIT campus, the large, red-painted barn is the site of the university's Interactive Adventures program [cite web | title = Interactive Adventures | publisher = Rochester Institute of Technology| url = http://www.rit.edu/studentaffairs/ciar/interactiveadventures.php | accessdate = 2008-09-26 ] . It is perhaps best known for its rock climbing and bouldering facilities.

Rock climbing

The Red Barn's 5000 square feet of climbing surface [cite web | title = Rock Climbing | publisher =Rochester Institute of Technology | url =http://www.rit.edu/studentaffairs/ciar/interactiveadventures_rockclimbing.php | accessdate = 2008-09-26] 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 an RIT-owned facility, its climbing facilities are open to the public, with memberships and day passes offered at a discount to RIT students. Climbing shoes are also available for rent.
