Looking to get off campus on Slope Day? Join a group of fellow students for a FREE session at Cornell's Hoffman Challenge Course!
You can register up to two people, so if you want, bring a friend! 

Located atop Mt. Pleasant, a wooded hilltop just 5 miles from Campus, the Hoffman Challenge Course is the largest university ropes course in the country and includes a 65-foot replica of McGraw Clock Tower, and a dozen other elements where participants are navigating obstacles 20-40 feet above the ground while secured with rope and harness.

Working with a mix of high elements, this event is challenge by choice! You will have opportunities to step outside your comfort zone -- but it's up to you how far (or how high!) you want to go!

If you have any questions, please contact Denice at dac11@cornell.edu.
