Rocksport Indoor Climbing Facility and Outdoor Guiding Service (www.rocksportny.com) is a family-owned and operated business. It provides indoor and outdoor climbing instruction along with guided tours. Rocksport features gentle challenges for the beginner, plenty of moderate terrain for the weekend warrior, and fierce overhang climbing for the expert. Rocksport’s new facility features a 45-foot tall, two-tier inclined climbing wall.
“During the design phase we had to look at the constructability of such a tall building and tackle an increasingly stringent energy code,” says Todd Coffin, project coordinator at Munter Enterprises Inc. of Middle Grove, N.Y. “Working at those heights and facing a mandatory blower door test on new commercial buildings by the local code enforcement, Metl-Span insulated panels were a no-brainer.”
