Rock climbing is awesome. And also very expensive. From shoes to harnesses and ropes to racks, there's no getting around the fact that it's a costly habit, and that's why we've been trolling REI's massive July 4 sale to find you all the best deals on the gear you need.
The sale runs for a few more days through July 7, and among the thousands of items that the outdoor retailer has slashed prices on, we've found some excellent deals on climbing gear from French brand Petzl and Oregon-based Metolius.
