The alliterative title captures the playful tone of tonight's after-work gathering, which goes above and beyond the usual happy-hour routine. Urban Escapes keeps it local and indoors for this rock climbing event, kicking it off with an hour-long lesson on the sport's basics — belaying, knot tying, and the like. Instructors then offer pointers for the next hour before everyone has a chance to secure next-morning bragging rights by scaling the manmade wall. The evening concludes at a nearby bar where burgers and drinks are served to famished adventurers.

Urban Escapes says:

We thought the name sounded cool, so we figured we’d put together a trip that combined some of our favorite activities—in the city. It’s the perfect combination for a Thursday: you’ll rock climb under the supervision of certified instructors and after a couple of hours we’ll replenish those calories with one of the best beer/burger combos in town!
