Cochise Stronghold Climbing Trips
A World Class Climbing Experience
Cochise Stronghold is home to perhaps the best rock climbing in Arizona. There is a lifetime of climbing spread across the Dragoon Mountain range. There is truly something for everyone here. If long multi-pitch routes are "your thing", the featured granite provides technical thought provoking climbing across miles of lichen painted rock. If you prefer single pitch climbing, don't worry there is plenty of that here as well. Sport and traditional routes are mixed together offering plenty of variety! And don’t worry there are tons of quality boulders for the pebble wrestlers too. You will find yourself perched atop these formations in awe of the vast desert mountains referred to as “sky islands”. The sky islands are isolated habitats that allow for a diversity of plants and animals that can’t survive on the desert floor to thrive in the islands in the sky created by these mountain ranges.
If you are just passing through, the 4 hour climbing trip is an efficient way to see the Stronghold up close and personal. You’ll still have time to do more than just climb with your day. If your time allows, you can schedule a full day climbing trip in the Stronghold and gain an intimate sense of the mountains.

Multi-Day “StoneMan in the Stronghold” Packages
It is difficult to soak in all the majesty of the Stronghold in a single day. For that reason, we offer the 2 and 3 day “StoneMan in the Stronghold” packages. This will make it more affordable and more enjoyable. The StoneMan Stronghold climbing experience is one that you are certain to never forget. The climbing here is world class, from thuggish bouldering to 800ft. tall multi-pitch routes on granite giants. The rocks are as rich with beauty as they are in history. Scramble and climb through the same rocky terrain that the warrior Cochise and his braves did, to evade the calvary. Hike through the same foothills as Wyatt Earp, Doc Holiday, and many other famous gunslingers of the wild west.
