“Where Humans Hang Around Like Bats: Brooklyn Boulders, as the cavernous, 22,000-square-foot playground is known, is the city’s largest and possibly most popular rock-climbing gym. But it is more than just a destination for adventure athletes.”

“The Adaptive Climbing Group is the brainchild of Kareemah Batts – she came around to the sport after a battle with cancer that cost her a part of a leg. She then found that she wanted to climb with other amputees and formed the group.”
