Firefighters are ambassadors for the event and a HUGE part of Stairclimb's culture.
Whether you are just joining us or a seasoned veteran, please familiarize yourself with event registration, team captain's role, and equipment/bottle guidelines.

Registration is $50 and firefighters participate in their own category, wearing full protective gear (see below). Timing chips are provided to all participants. Awards are presented for fastest times and for the top firefighter fundraiser (for those who opt to fundraise).  
​
Climb one of Vancouver's tallest buildings, challenge yourself and do it for a good cause.  Join us and make a difference on February 24th, 2019 at Climb the Wall!

EQUIPMENT NEEDED

Please be prepared to race in full firefighter gear:

• Boots

• Self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) will be worn and used throughout the entire Stairclimb. 

Each participant in the Firefighter division must wear gear that meets current National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) structural firefighting standards.
