Flash Foxy Festivals

Flash Foxy originated to empower women climbers and offer a virtual space to connect over climbing, being outside together, and building community. The inaugural Women’s Climbing Festival in 2016 helped us establish an alternate climbing space in real life that did not center cisgender men. 

The climbing community is not static and Flash Foxy has adapted over the years to meet the needs of its membership as they grow, change and continue to self-actualize. Presently, Flash Foxy stands with women and genderqueer climbers - including trans and gender non-conforming folks - who need a space to pursue their love of the sport without having to deal with historic barriers to access.

Our Mission is to provide accessible resources, opportunities and welcoming spaces for our climbing community through events and education programs. Originally created to celebrate women climbing with women, our community has grown to include a range of gender expressions and gender identities amongst our membership and leadership teams.
