Effective immediately, the state of Wisconsin will become part of Region 501- Midwest, as approved during the USA Climbing Board of Directors meeting on August 24, 2017. The recommendation, for the state of Wisconsin to be moved from Region 502- Great Lakes to Region 501- Midwest has been approved and will be in effect for the start of the 2017-2018 season, which kicks off on September 1st. The change will allow for a more even distribution of competitors across the regions within Division 5. Below is a map of USA Climbing’s Regional and Divisional Boundaries. The country is divided into 16 Regions and 8 Divisions. For more information, please visit the Regional Map page.
