CLIMB OPTIONS

FULL CLIMB

Take on Michigan's tallest building (the Renaissance Center) all the way to the 70th floor by climbing 1,035 stairs. The most popular option.

HALF CLIMB

This option is great for first time climbers. Participants will tackle 40 floors of Michigan's tallest building (the Renaissance Center) and climb 585 stairs. Half Climbers will NOT be timed.

FIREFIGHTER CHALLENGE

All Firefighter Challenge participants are timed during their vertical climb to reach the top of the 70th floor of the Marriott Tower of the Renaissance Center and are to wear full structural firefighting personal protective equipment which meets current NFPA standards. This includes: Boots, turnout coat and pants, helmet, gloves, and SCBA harness with air cylinder. SCBA face pieces and hoods do not need to be worn. Firefighters will not be on air.

If you are a firefighter wishing to climb without full gear, you can register for the Competitive Climb as a Firefighter Team and are encouraged to wear your Bunk Shirts.

Please note: All Climbers are given flight times, based on their funds raised in 2010 (Super Steppers & Summit Club Teams). Flight times are used to avoid congestion in the stairs and starting lines. All participants receive an official Fight For Air Climb medal when they return to the GM Wintergarden and an official participant t-shirt (with the minimum $100 fundraising requirement). After the climb, you can take your medal and brag to your friends. You made it!
